There are few things scarier than that moment in a horror movie where you realize the characters have lost track of one of their friends. But what’s even scarier than watching that happen is having it happen to you, the sensation a hit first-person survival game attempted to simulate. Now, the effort to bring the feel of a horror movie into a video game is going full circle with a movie adaptation by some of the genre’s most trusted names. Alberto Rodriguez/GA/The Hollywood Reporter/Getty ImagesDeadline reports horror game Phasmophobia is being adapted into a feature film by Blumhouse, the studio behind horror smash hits like Get Out, Split, and The Black Phone. Video games have proven to be a reliable source for horror movies recently, with Five Nights at Freddy’s and Until Dawn proving there’s an audience for these works.
