FX is planning on making a big splash this year in San Diego. Along with planning a live Archer event, FX is also bringing an immersive Virtual Reality experience to any and all American Horror Story fans. However, the VR experience is part of much larger art exhibit!
At the Hilton Bayfront, fans of FX shows Archer, American Horror Story, The Strain, It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, and Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll will be treated to an immersive experience that places fans in their favorite worlds. As for the horror fans out there, “American Horror Story will curate a virtual reality experience unlike any other that takes participants on a unique journey through terrifying encounters inspired by the hair-raising series.”
Horror and VR experiences seem to be the perfect match and it’s sure to garner some attention during the convention. Lucky for fans, FX has set up a website that allows you to reserve a spot for your VR experience! Starting July 19th, you can book your spot at AHSReservations.com.
As for the other FX shows, here’s what’s planned for the FXhibition:
It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia’s Paddy’s Pub will offer an escape from the heat providing water on tap for fans to stay cool throughout the day. A real bar will house the water taps and consumers will receive a branded collapsible cup to enjoy their drink. The FX Lounge will also be available throughout the day to provide shade and entertainment, where guests can rest their feet in seating inspired by some of the world’s most iconic chairs re-interpreted as notable props from various FX series, including the American Horror Story: Hotel Mattress as a Barcelona Bench and Archer’s Martini Olive as an Oliva Chair.
On display in the FX Sculpture Garden, fans can take advantage of social media worthy photo opportunities with iconic characters sculpted as busts including, Archer’s “Pam Poovey,” American Horror Story: Asylum’sWhite Nun, Man Seeking Woman’s Troll, The Strain’s “Quinlan,” Baskets’ Clown and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’s “Frank Reynolds” as the “troll” character from The Nightman Cometh.
Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll’s turbulent rock culture will be illustrated through a dramatic larger-than-life installation, featuring a smashed guitar with broken pieces several feet in size for a life size exhibit.
