“Grim and Grimmer Tales”
The critically acclaimed Victorian Horror Troupe PHANTASMAGORIA celebrates its 15th year of production with Tales of Terror and Haunted Poetry, wrapped within a Haunting Ghost Story in the newest entry of their long running Halloween mainstage series.
The members of Phantasmagoria will weave their “Whimsically Macabre” tapestry as you enter the darkened attic for tales that will send a chill up your spine as well as strike a darkly humorous vein as this Phantastical troupe journeys through tales from literature, folk tales, legend and MUCH more!
Haunting Tales from Edgar Allan Poe, the ghostly secrets of Henry James, humorous spectral appendages from Le Fanu, and a host of other classic and original tales come to life through Phantasmagoria’s signature blend of Evocative Storytelling, Phantastical Dance, Puppetry, Projections, and Original Music – all in new adaptations performed in the unique Phantasmagoria style!
The perfect way to celebrate the 2024 Halloween season!
