The Haunting of Hannibal House: This world premier one act surrounds 8 teenagers spending the night in a haunted house on a dare. It is rumored that “Howard Hannibal” who built this enormous estate in 1864, buried treasure before vanishing alongside his unknown acquaintance in 1875. Nobody in the house has been able to remain there long, due to mysterious fires, murders, and ghostly occurrences. Will these 8 students make it through the night? Will they find lost treasure? What will happen in the “Haunting of Hannibal House? Come find out on October 29th and 30th! Show begins at 7PM and is not recommended for children under 12.
Falcon Haunt: Ghouls and spirits abide as the Thespians of Troupe 5006 will be hosting a scare filled Haunted House. Walk the haunted hall and enter the parlor of the mansion. What happens in there, no one will say. You must experience it for yourself. The haunted house is open after the show on Friday and at 7:30PM on Saturday.
Kids Fright Fest: On Saturday 10/31, starting at 1PM the Thespian Troupe 5006 will also be hosting a Halloween festival for our younger kids.
