Ever wondered what it’d be like to live in a haunted house? Apple’s Vision Pro is your new surprising medium. The headgear is taking the spook factor up a notch with Hauntify, a mixed-reality game that turns the comfort of your home into something far more malevolent.

Developed by Virtual Go, Hauntify utilizes the Vision Pro’s advanced sensors to scan your surroundings, creating a playground for virtual spirits to roam in a hair-raising game of hide-and-seek. 

While the game has been lurking in the App Store for a while, it’s recently caught the internet’s attention thanks to a viral tweet showcasing its eerie gameplay. With Halloween on the horizon, the timing couldn't be more perfect for those looking to add some digital frights to their fall festivities.

Hauntify’s dynamic occlusion feature is where things get really interesting. Ghosts can hide behind your furniture or peek around corners, creating a sense of suspense that’ll have you checking over your shoulder in real life. Each spectral entity comes with its own set of skills and hunting techniques, ensuring that no two hauntings are quite the same.

For safety reasons, the developers have included precautionary features like movement speed limits and transparency adjustments to keep the experience thrilling but safe.

For those eager to turn their home into a personal haunted house, Hauntify is available on the Apple App Store. The game has also been adapted for Meta Quest headsets, making these unsettling apparitions more apparent to all.
