A Ghostly Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson Invites YouTube Stars To Enter Haunted Hotel

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has made a lot of friends in the online video community since launching his official YouTube channel earlier this year. Now, he has invited some of those friends to join him for a haunted seance spectacular. He is the primary star of YouTube’s Room 301 series, which includes several videos shot on the site’s Halloween-themed sets.

The introductory video in the Room 301 was directed by Jesse Wellens of PrankVsPrank fame. A few creators at a time, Wellens’ colleagues in the YouTube community file into a spooky hotel, where a ghostly Rock awaits them. The video, shot in 360 degrees, is best watched through a virtual reality device like Google’s new Daydream headset, but it is available to all viewers through Wellens’ DownRangeGaming channel.

Once the featured stars — including Furious Pete, Chachi Gonzales, and LaToya Forever — accept their invitations into the hotel, they head up to Room 301, where they participate in a seance that will return The Rock to his corporeal body. To accomplish that goal, the creators must be honest with one another, thus facing their fears and anxieties.
