Spookality 2024

Amid twisting doorways, a dungeon maze,

VRRat hovers in a bubbling haze.

In his paws, a flask of green,

He whispers softly, "October 14th..."

The liquid stirs, begins to rise!

“It’s ALIVE!” he cheers with sparkling eyes.

The ritual complete, the spell is cast—

It’s VRCat! But green, with a skeleton mask.

Spookality 2024 is a continuation of the annual Halloween-themed jam held by VRChat. Highlighting creators on VRChat on the Main Menu and in the VRChat home world.

Makeship collaboration

VRChat collaborated with Makeship to create a glow-in-the-dark enamel pin set, including one "VRChat"-themed pin, and one "Spookality VRCat"-themed pin. The campaign ran from October 1 to October 30, 2024.

"Just one more ingredient and my experiment should be complete… hold still VRCat!"

"meeeeeeeEEeEoOoOOwWWW"

Oh no! VRCat's fallen into one of VRRat's crazy experiments… and just in time for Spookality! Snag this rare bone-ified treat, and add Glow-in-the-Dark Skeleton VRCat to your pin collection. We all know you have one ;)

Happy Spookality you ghouls!
