If you’re as excited as us about the upcoming release of Ghostbusters: Afterlife, you may just be pushed over to boiling point at the announcement that the folk over at Secret Cinema are organising an innovative virtual live experience based on the supernatural world of Ghostbusters in collaboration with Sony Pictures!
Named Ghostbusters: The Gates of Gozer, the virtual live experience will launch on 1 December 2021. Find out more with the trailer here…
Ghostbusters: The Gates of Gozer is set one year after Ghostbusters (1984). As the Ghostbusters’ bask in their victory at the Ivo Shandor building, fans will be able to enroll as a new enthusiastic generation of students at the Paranormal Institute, partaking in the missing chapter of the Ghostbusters legend. The Ghostbusters will be on hand to quickly train up and recruit more people following their finest hour, so they can pass on their experience and expertise in battling ghosts.
The experience will fuse together technical features and special effects with live actor interactions – fans will train with the best as they embark on a journey of paranormal knowledge and are put to the ultimate test in a world featuring mesmeric visual effects, including face filters and voice modulators alongside spine-tingling binaural sound.
People will enroll to explore the haunted realms of New York in teams of six and they will have the chance to meet new and familiar faces during the show while they get trained in key skills including parapsychology, and science and technology. Once in live paranormal scenarios, students must use quick wits, live improvisation, and a range of gadgets to hunt the trickiest or most malevolent of spooks as they work their way through the experience.
But be careful who, or what, you believe since nefarious characters have concocted plans that could result in the destruction of the Ghostbusters…. and indeed the end of the world.
Ghostbusters: The Gates of Gozer, the virtual live experience will launch on 1 December 2021. General ticket sales will be available from 12pm GMT on November 1, 2021.
