'We were very inspired by the deeply layered and dynamic world Misha Green has brought to life in Lovecraft Country and wanted to create a digital experience for fans that is just as innovative as the series itself,' said Dana Flax, Vice President, Program Marketing at HBO.

How will you come back from the experience? Courtesy of HBO. We got a couple quotes about the experience below, along with screenshots and a teaser.

The first event will take place on September 3rd at 7pm PDT. There will also be a theatrical performance inspired by the words of James Baldwin, adapted by series writer Shannon Houston, and performed by Jurnee Smollett. Vance, and Michael Kenneth Williams as well as art installations by David Alabo, Devan Shimoyama, and Adeyemi Adegbesan. You'll be treated to voiceover performances by Jonathan Majors, Courtney B. So you'll be able to see what those in the game see in real-time. All of which you will experience on the Oculus Quest and will simultaneously run on the social VR platform VRChat and YouTube Live. 100 chosen influential voices will experience three events that will be a mix of immersive theater, escape rooms, art installations, puzzles, and a live concert. The experience is called Lovecraft Country: Sanctum, which is a series of exclusive virtual reality events that will transport invited guests into a world inspired by the show. HBO has decided to promote Lovecraft Country a little differently than other shows by offering up a VR experience you can play.
