Spookality 2024 BlogHeader.png

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.[1]
