Blumhouse Productions is set to adapt the viral horror video game “Phasmophobia” into a film, marking a significant moment in the intersection of gaming and cinema. This collaboration with Atomic Monster and Kinetic Games Limited is particularly exciting for fans of the game, which has captivated millions with its unique ghost-hunting gameplay since its early access launch in 2020. With over 23 million copies sold and critical acclaim under its belt, the film adaptation promises to bring the chilling atmosphere of the game to life on the big screen.
The announcement was made during Hollywood’s inaugural “Business of Fear” event, showcasing Blumhouse’s commitment to expanding its portfolio in the horror genre.
