- (FBE) Today, we're going to be doing something a little different.
Any ideas? - I'm not sitting.
- If you're standing up, you're either dancing or VR.
- (FBE) This is an HTC Vive,
a virtual reality gaming headset. - Cool!
Yes, that's awesome.
I feel like I've seen this before and I've really wanted to try it.
- It's really cool.
It really makes you feel like you're there in the game.
- You know, I have a difficult relationship with the Vive.
I don't really like virtual reality stuff that much.
- (FBE) We're going to have you try it out
and play a game called Paranormal Activity VR.
- Bye, guys.
- I've never even seen the movies.
I've never played-- I didn't even know they had a game to be honest.
- I've seen the movies! I know what it's about.
Ghosts and demons and stuff.
Some-- I don't mess with!
- (FBE) Unlike a lot of small indie horror games
we've had you play, this is a full-length horror game,
so we're going to have you play about the first 30 minutes
to see what you think. - Okay.
Thank god.
- Scary games, you know, they're pretty bad,
but I can just shut it off when I want to.
But this-- what, am I supposed to close my eyes?
Damn, dude, I'm going to die.
I'm going to shit my pants.
- Bruh! I'm already tripping on this.
- I see blood on the wall.
That-- oh, that's my hand.
- (softly) Oh no, the door is open.
- Do I have a flashlight yet? No, I don't.
I really don't want to go in there.
- I'm in the woods. (crickets chirping)
Already super scared.
- So this is where everyone gets murdered in the movies.
- Oh snap! There's a flashlight.
- I can't see my hand and that scares me.

- Look at me. I look so stupid.
- Oooh! That's crazy.

♪ (rumbling music) ♪ Hell no, bro.
(dogs barking faintly) - No, don't do this.
Come on. Turn back on.
- This looks kind of like Insidious.
Not too fond of that.
- It's a crow!
That's all bad, bro. Crows mean dead.
- What does this sign say?
- "I swung by to return the key.
It's in the usual hiding spot."
- If I were living here,
I'd probably hide it under a mat or something.
- People usually put them in... garden pots.
- My flashlight, it's not... (clicking switch)
Ah, shoot!
Where'd my battery go?
Well, that's useless.
- Oh, I see it.
- Oh, hello.
I need you.
- I have a key.
I really don't want to use it though.
- Let's do this. (door hinge creaking)
Oh shiiiiizz.
- The lights are on. It looks old in here.

Yeah, I didn't shut that.

This is not what I came here for.

Open this, please. ♪ (music box playing) ♪
Nah, close that.
Those sounds are bad news in these types of games.

and yet there's a fire burning.
- "Needs... batteries." Yes, we do.
"Need food."
I mean, that's not a priority-- oh, batteries!
(clicking flashlight) - Oh!
- I got to be careful with my flashlight, on how much I use it.
- I don't know what the point of this game is,
but I'm nervous.
- Girl and a clock.
- "I am scared."
I would be too if I lived in this place.
Jesus Christ.
- I'm going to set this down gently.
(loud thump) That was still too loud.
(loud thump) - (whimpering)
(picture frame clatters)
- We shouldn't make that much noise!
(sighing) (door rattling)
What was that?
(door rattling) - Oh, what the--?! Was that me?
- Three doors, one that's already open,
two that are closed.
Let's get this over with.
- There's a camera, so if something happens to me
I got evidence.
I could sue some people.
- Okay, can't turn that on.
- A teddy bear? Are you for real?
Noooo!!! No, no.
- Does this door work? Nope, it does not.

Leave me alone.

(sternly) Listen, little girl. This isn't no game.
I'm not playing with you.
- This is why you don't go into random houses
that say they're going to foreclose.
- Just some creepy girl just running across the thing, yo.
Something you see every daaaaay!
Now that door's open.
- Guys... - (girl) Hey!
It's after me.

You think I'm gonna come after you?
No, boo, this isn't how it works.

Oh, is that--?
Let's go upstairs. Let's go upstairs.

Usually, in scary games, I'll just be like, man,
I know it's gonna scare me, but I got to do it.
But I really-- I really didn't want to do it this time.

because I literally would've peed my pants.
With the goggle and the headset,
it feels like you have no escape.

it just makes it like you're literally there.
I'm not that big of a horror dude,
especially with those kinds of game, I would totally stay away,
but you know what?
I think for the thrill of it, I'd probably do it again.
