Terrifying True Stories
By Candlelight in a
Haunted Theater...

Immerse yourself in a spine-chilling world as you enter a haunted theater, where the boundaries between the living and the dead have long since crumbled.

You’ll Meet The Souls That Cannot Leave....

Terriifyingtruestories- in a hunted theater

You’ll encounter the restless spirits and dark figures who refuse to remain buried in history’s forgotten corners.

Experience candlelit encounters with the damned and the desperate, and witness the macabre history that seeps from every stone and shadow.  

These aren't mere stories—they're encounters with souls who demand to be remembered, spirits who hunger for acknowledgment, and entities that refuse to rest...

Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Reserve your place now among the brave few who will face what lurks in the candlelit corners, where every flicker of flame reveals a new horror and every shadow conceals a dark secret.

This is just some of what you will experience:

The Resurrection of Marjorie McCall

ResurrectionFINAL

Meet the woman history claims lived once but was buried twice—Marjorie McCall, whose impossible return from an Irish grave in 1705 defied all natural law and unleashed something far darker than a miracle. Follow her through rooms where desperate scratching echoes from beyond the windows as she reveals the terrible price of cheating fate itself.
Experience a relentless encounter where the boundary between salvation and damnation blurs, and discover why some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.

Salem’s Circle

SalemsCircleFINAL

Enter the shadowed realm where a mysterious host draws you deeper into forbidden Victorian mysteries, as thirteen flickering torches illuminate rituals that blur the line between performance and otherworldly practice. Within the protective circle, witness demonstrations of arcane arts that challenge the boundaries of flesh and spirit, while ancient incantations weave through the night air.
In the circle, mastery extends beyond mere storytelling—some secrets demand participation, some mysteries require a willing soul to unlock their power. The circle offers sanctuary from what lurks beyond, but the knowledge gained within may follow you long after the torches are extinguished.

Doctor Wax

DrWaxFINAL

Step into a decaying Victorian parlor where young Eliza, a ghostly child in tattered nightdress, desperately seeks your help to escape the sinister master of the house. As flickering candlelight reveals rooms filled with unnaturally perfect porcelain figures, you’ll discover the horrifying truth about the gentle-voiced collector who transforms the pure into his eternal masterpieces.

Navigate through shadowy halls where the line between the living and the preserved grows dangerously thin, in a bone-chilling encounter that will leave you questioning what price some pay for perfection.

The Final Prophecy

FinalProphecyFINAL

Enter Franz Anton Mesmer’s candlelit dining room where the father of hypnosis and master of animal magnetism demonstrates how mysterious artifacts pulse with supernatural energy and knowledge of the living. Through his pioneering understanding of the invisible forces that connect all beings, witness impossible revelations of personal secrets as mysterious objects reveal what should be unknowable. Watch as he rewrites the rules of what’s possible.

Experience a mind-bending encounter with the otherworldly where written words become vessels for messages from beyond, and some communications from the spirit realm prove far more personal and immediate than anyone could imagine.

The Nest of Spiders

NestofSpidersFINAL

Enter Dr. Eliza Fanny Staveley’s Victorian home laboratory where the pioneering British arachnologist and author of the definitive “British Spiders” reveals discoveries that challenge everything you thought you knew about coordination, intelligence, and the creatures that drop from above. What begins as scientific fascination quickly transforms into something far more sinister.
Navigate through darkness where nature’s most efficient predators demonstrate hunting techniques that will redefine your understanding of what lurks in the shadows and webs above.

Exorcista

ExorcistaFINAL

Enter the abandoned sanctuary where the desperate Father Kane battles ancient evil as malevolent forces expose your darkest secrets and supernatural phenomena erupt around you in a terrifying clash between divine faith and something much darker.

Experience otherworldly entities seeking new vessels among witnesses while discovering why some sacred rituals should never be attempted—and why the greatest danger lurks not in the battle itself, but in the false peace that follows. 

A harrowing finale where salvation and damnation balance on a razor’s edge, forcing you to question whether any soul will escape unmarked by forces that refuse to be banished.
