TEEN SLASHER MOVIE, a new immersive experience, announced a five-week limited engagement beginning September 16, 2017 at undisclosed locations across New York City. Tickets now on sale at 8players.com. Locations revealed after purchase.

Just in time for back to school, Teen Slasher Movie throws adventurous participants (21+) inside the tongue-in-cheek world of the late-'90s horror genre. Every ticketbuyer takes on a unique, savvy, three-dimensional role as one of several familiar characters. As hero, each unravels a mystery starring themselves across a cinematic venue, interacts with performers, and unlocks twists. Enter a dark, high-drama- high-camp landscape.

Cast, crew, and creative team are alumni of acclaimed experiences SLEEP NO MORE, QUEEN OF THE NIGHT, BLACKOUT, EMPIE TRAVEL AGENCY and UK's YOU ME BUM BUM TRAIN.

Theatrical company 8Players has been producing experiences in LA and NY since 2013. 8P officially premiered as the Opening Night Event of the invite-only 2015 Future Of Storytelling Summit alongside Margaret Atwood, David Blaine, and Edward Snowden. It has since gained word of mouth with NYC shows 2015-2017 quickly selling out and events commissioned for private parties and brands. 8Players was selected alongside Sleep No More and Then She Fell for the 2016 FoSTFest, "highlighting the very best in immersive theater."

In every 8P show, each based on a particular film genre, strangers interact as costumed protagonists and lose inhibitions. Participants complete a questionnaire beforehand, allowing the 8Players team to cast them in a tailored role. Equally scary, transformative, and comical, participant responses include: "As soon as it ended I wanted to do it again," "Madness," and "Completely out of reality." From creator/producer Ross Tipograph [Time Out's September 2016 array of "influencers creating our most exciting culture"].

Tickets available NOW at 8players.com. Audiences can only sign up alone or as a pair.
