New Jack the Ripper VR experience takes guests to darkened alleys of Whitechapel

On select nights until Oct. 31, guests can live through their own ‘Autumn of Terror’ as they help solve the case of Jack the Ripper with Hollow Studio’s Immersive Virtual Reality (VR) Haunted House at the Mountasia Fun Center in Santa Clarita, Calif.

From the moment they come across the facade of a darkened alley in Victorian-era Whitechapel, guests are immediately thrust into the dark, terrifying world of the Ripper.

Before putting on their VR headsets,  guests will make their way through a highly detailed pre-show area and are recruited by Scotland Yard to explore an abandoned wax museum and identify the Ripper.

Players will search for clues throughout the experience to uncover the true identity of the infamous Whitechapel Murderer.

Inside, the attraction plays like a tense thriller, with visitors working together to piece together the puzzle – all while fearing that the devious Ripper could be waiting around every corner. At the end of the experience, guests decide on who they believe is Jack’s secret identity, but be warned: an incorrect choice could lead to an up-close and personal encounter with the Ripper himself.

This Jack the Ripper-themed VR experience is open Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays through Halloween night, Oct. 31. Tickets are on sale now for $29.95 per person. To learn more, and to purchase tickets for yourself, visit  HollowZone.com.
