About this Event
Darkness.
We’ve been told to fear it. To hide from it.
It’s where our monsters and demons reside.
Mothman asks us to face it, to embrace it, to feed off of it.
Join Mothman. Follow him into the void and face the darkness together.
In this dark, spooky, alternative comedy, Mothman leads the audience into the void through a series of games and rituals to embrace the darkness together.
This is performed mostly in the dark, lit by Mothman's glowing red eyes.
It uses haze and has frequent audience participation.
