VR video game Events at Unity Farm is being adapted into a live-action television series.

Geoffrey Thorne (Eyes of WakandaPower: Book II: Ghost and Batman: Caped Crusader) is working with Titan1Studios on the adaptation. 

Thorne will write and exec produce alongside his partner, Todd Sharp, through their banner, The Winterman Project.

The video game was first released in 2023 and follows Ruth Bowie, a reserved teenager descended from a matrilineal line of witches.

The TV series will follow Ruth and her family as they return to the titular farm, a mysterious parcel of land holding untold supernatural horrors. Thorne will expand on the characters established in the game, leaning into the multigenerational nature of the Bowie family legacy and emphasizing contemporary YA themes, per the producers.

“The world of Unity Farm is rich and full of surprises which, to me, a creative with a lifetime immersed in genre media, was like a siren song,” said Thorne. “Who wouldn’t want to play in this sandbox? The Winterman Project is thrilled to be partnering with Titan1 on bringing the world of Unity Farm to wider media and I, personally, am both humbled and excited to be the guy who gets to drive.”

“As Titan1Studios celebrates our tenth anniversary, our focus is entirely on scaling our core universes for a global audience,” said Rathan Moorthy, CEO of Titan1Studios. “Events at Unity Farm proved that our original IP resonates deeply with fans, and adapting it for TV is the natural next step. Geoff’s exceptional vision for this world perfectly complements our ambitious television slate, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring this franchise to life alongside him.”

Deadline first reported on the adaptation.
