It’s close to Halloween so I went to some Halloween towns just to see what people have there, and it’s quite interesting. I found this place that there are a bunch of transparent ghosts rising from fog and disappear into the sky. I thought it was 3D but they were actually flat images. That made me a little disappointed but it is still a great scene to watch. I got closer to it and I saw the sign saying that the maker had given people the chance to copy and put down these ghosts as many as wanted. I then found that this whole place is like a Halloween museum full of interactive stuffs.
There is a well that would show the image of a longhair female ghost dressing in white when an avatar gets close. The ghost image stays exactly the same when I rotate my view, but I couldn’t see it rotating, so I guess there was some special scripting working with it.
I thought it was funny that I later ran into a theater in this place that was playing a Japanese horror movie. I noticed it because suddenly I heard people speaking Japanese. It was weird to hear that in such a Western-style place as a castle. I followed the sound and I found there was a movie playing. This was the first time that I watch a movie in Second Life and the experience was very interesting. When I am using Second Life I, in fact, never found it as “immersive” as it seems to be. However, the virtual world (movie) inside another virtual world creates this illusion that I am really in some places watching this movie.
