Viral Willy Wonka event allegedly getting a horror movie but is it all a hoax?
TikTok: lifeonmarz.wtfA viral Willy Wonka experience that left attendees outraged will now see one iconic character get their own movie… but is it all a hoax?
Following the success of Wonka, a new interactive experience in Glasgow failed to have the same impact on disappointed attendees.
Titled ‘Willy’s Chocolate Experience,’ the “awful event” left children in tears and was ultimately shut down, with multiple actors involved speaking out against the organizers and the “embarrassing experience.” However, for one new character added just for the event, Willy’s Chocolate Experience might be their big break.
‘The Unknown’ was ultimately the cause of many children’s discomfort. Now, many sites are crediting Bloody Disgusting with a report that Scotland-based film production company ‘Kaledonia Pictures’ is looking to put the character on the big screen. There’s only one problem — Kaledonia Pictures might not exist.
The alleged production company first shared its plans with Bloody Disgusting, claiming the film would be “gearing up for production and a late 2024 release” with the storyline following “a renowned illustrator and his wife who are haunted by the tragic death of their son, Charlie.”
“Desperate to escape their grief, the couple leave the world behind for the remote Scottish Highlands – where an unknowable evil awaits them,” the plot synopsis continued. And it didn’t take long for other news sites to latch onto the story.
But internet sleuths were quick to notice that Kaledonia Pictures has no online presence and doesn’t seem to exist outside reports surrounding the supposedly upcoming film.
“I think this might actually be bullsh**,” one person wrote on X. “I tried to look up ‘Kaledonia Pictures’ and all I found was two separate companies called ‘Caledonia Pictures’, with a C. Neither of them make movies. The only references I found to the studio were the article linked, and others citing it.”
Another said, “Once again, a singular internet article on one site is being taken as news. The company that is allegedly producing this film, Kaledonia Pictures, has no presence anywhere online, which means you are clearly being duped, just like those families that paid for that Wonka tour.”
For now, there really is no telling if this horror flick is going ahead or if this is just another step in the viral chaos of it all.
