1. Okada Manila’s Scare-tacular Affair
From October 26 to November 4, a “nightmare” is popping up in the Crystal Corridor—and it’s going to be a dream come true for guests who love new experiences, shopping, and sharing a terrifyingly fun time with the entire family. Titled ‘Okada Manila’s Scare-tacular Affair’, this Halloween-lover’s paradise brings multi-layered spookiness to Okada Manila guests with larger-than-life decors perfect for taking season-appropriate selfies and groufies.
The stunning decorations along Crystal Corridor are complemented by four different kinds of virtual reality (VR) experiences co-created with Samsung’s Intellismart Games to take the spook-factor to the next level. Choose your own adventures fighting off Freaky Zombies, ambling along with Eerie Bones, escaping the Scary Mummy, or enjoying a smashing time with Creepy Pumpkins. Bring the thrill to real life with exciting games such as a timed Scavenger Hunt and an adrenaline-pumping round of Throw the Hoops for exciting prizes!
