What is the Lollipop challenge?

The Lollipop challenge is better known online as the Lollipop Zoom game, which is inspired by the short movie “Take This Lollipop”. 

“Take This Lollipop” is an interactive horror movie, where you sit and watch every member of the call being taken down by an online stalker.

The movie is interactive, thus extra scary, because it doesn’t feel like a normal horror movie but you rather feel that you are on a call with these people, that you are a part of the movie.

This movie has turned to a game and it has become a challenge on TikTok; the hashtag “Take This Lollipop” has over 5 million views.

Who invented the Lollipop Zoom game?

The Take This Lollipop game that has gone viral in 2020 is a follow-up of the 2011 short horror movie. 

Back then, a Facebook app with the same name became very popular online.

The goal was to take users personal information from their Facebook profiles and turn them into stars of a horror movie.

Jason Zada was the director and writer of the movie and Bill Oberst Jr. starred as the creepy stalker. 

The movie’s title is influenced by the 1963 song “Please Little Girl Take This Lollipop” by Bobby Jameson.
