This Extended Footage Gives Us The Most Detailed Look Of That Hilariously Awful Wonka Immersive Experience Yet

    It's the rationed jellybeans for me.

    We're on day three of the discourse around the disastrous Willy Wonka "immersive chocolate experience" in Glasgow.

    To run you up to speed real quick, people paid $40 a ticket to go to a Willy Wonka candy world that turned out to be terrible.

    My absolute favorite part of this whole thing is this completely made-up character called "The Unknown," who hides behind mirrors and scares children.

    This Willy Wonka story is incredible. What's going on here? What part of the film was this hahahahaha. pic.twitter.com/A66AxwYVhN

    In the clip, we get another view of the slightly terrifying and completely perplexing "Unknown" villain:

    a person in a mask coming from behind a mirror

    We see a child getting approximately three jellybeans from an Oompa Loompa:

    You really get a perspective of just how random all of the decor was:

    Person squats behind a large blue pipeline structure, partially concealed but visible

    It's practically empty!

    We also get a view of the chocolate moat, and also see that people waited in a line to walk over it.

    We get to see Willy Wonka in action:

    A child interacts with a person dressed as Willy Wonka standing next to an oversized chocolate bar

    And there's also a clip of a woman scooping marshmallows into cups Great Depression-style:

    Child watches as an adult prepares food with strawberries and chocolate at a table

    Bleak!

    The video ends with a slideshow showing some more of the decor:

    Child stands in front of gated "FACTORY" entrance under arched ceiling

    We see that people actually waited in lines for what little candy they had.

    And we get to see what guests got to take home:

    Ultimately, this is the gift that keeps on giving.

    I would like an immersive experience of this immersive experience.
