As the spirits return to their graves and the glowing smile on the Jack O Lantern dims, our Halloween Haunt Guide comes to a close with fewer and fewer events. But we don't want to keep up an empty guide throughout the year--rather, we want to showcase the wonderful haunted houses, conventions, immersive horror experiences, [...]

Hotel Who’s La Séance: Spiritualism, Intrigue, & Recommendations for this Murder Mystery

November 5, 2023 By Taylor Winters In Immersive Theater, Review, The Hotel Who No Comments

Various rugs are laid across the floor, lit only by the flicker of candlelight. Strangers join hands together, forming a kidney bean shaped circle. Ludwig kneels at the center, the Ivar family remaining close, but not too close. Ludwig begins speaking in a tongue I cannot comprehend, his breath becoming more rapid, as he opens [...]

Haunted Soiree Combines Deep Lore, Monstrous Creatures, and Immersive Elements This Halloween

October 15, 2023 By Taylor Winters In Dinner & Drinks, Immersive Theater, Meyer2Meyer Entertainment, Review No Comments

The Haunted Soiree: A Macabre Cocktail Party was previously known as House of Spirits: A Haunted Cocktail Soiree—and it was one of our favorite events during the Halloween season. The experience runs two-hours and is sandbox in style, meaning guests have free roam over the entirety of an atmospheric theater, finding monstrous scavenger hunts, demonic [...]

The Hotel Who: A Love Story Excels In Its Musical Storytelling

April 25, 2023 By Taylor Winters In Dinner & Drinks, Immersive Theater, Review, The Hotel Who No Comments

I received a letter from my Aunt Leticia, Matriarch of the Sunflower family. I guess her son, Johnny, has met—and proposed to Judy Rose. Yes, you read that right: a Rose. Us Sunflowers have never gotten along with the Roses, worse than soil and salt; but if I know Leticia, she has something up her [...]

Stranger Things The Experience Allows You to Unlock Your Power as a Main Character

December 4, 2022 By Taylor Winters In Immersive Theater, Installations / Pop-Ups, Review No Comments

When I was growing up in the 80’s to early 90’s, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Ghostbusters were my favorite franchises. I owned a full Ghostbuster suit with a proton pack and, of course, I had every Ninja Turtle as an action figure. Yet, last night, when I stepped into Stranger Things The Experience, I [...]

Downtown Repertory Theater Creates an Immersive Masterpiece with Witch!

November 29, 2022 By Taylor Winters In Downtown Repertory Theater, Immersive Theater, Review No Comments

“Do you believe in ghosts?” James asks me as we traverse deeper down the dark corridor lit only by his lantern light. The coin purse jingles in my hands, reminding me of my mission—to deliver this definitely-not-a-bribe to the Magistrate. But as we walk deeper down into the mausoleum, I worry that I am further [...]

Hotel Who Invites Guests to Stay Overnight and Immerse Themselves In a Murder Mystery

October 16, 2022 By Taylor Winters In Dinner & Drinks, Immersive Theater, Review, The Hotel Who 1 Comment

Note: While we recommend the full overnight Hotel Who experience to those that can afford it, we also recognize that with all the immersive horror and haunted houses this season, money is extremely tight. Hotel Who is offering discounted tickets for the experience alone (no overnight hotel stay) for only $125. With a six-hour immersive [...]
