The wildly popular Halloween spectacular returns for the fifth year with an all-new version, NIGHTMARE: BAD DREAMS COME TRUE, set to take NYC by storm from September 26 – November 8 at CSV Cultural Center (107 Suffolk Street at Rivington Street). For this fifth anniversary, Psycho Clan (Executive Director, Chip Meyrelles) and creator/director, "the king of horror" (ABC World News Tonight) Timothy Haskell, have pulled out all the stops for America's thrill-seekers including the addition of a second brand-new haunted attraction, NIGHTMARE: LEGENDS. For more information visit NighmareNewYork.com.
And, to mark this milestone, the NIGHTMARE franchise has gone national, with an expanded version of last year's hit, NIGHTMARE: GHOST STORIES, opening in Miami, Florida on September 25. For more information about Nightmare: Ghost Stories in Miami, Visit NightmareMiami.com
For its 5th anniversary, Psycho Clan decided that NIGHTMARE should actually be about nightmares so, as in years past, it conducted an online poll about its audience's recurring bad dreams-and thousands responded! The creative team then selected the most twisted, demented responses, added some iconic recurring nightmares, and created a house that will force audiences to experience awake what few can handle asleep. With more special effects, more elaborate sets, and more evil baddies waiting to get you then ever before, NIGHTMARE: BAD DREAMS COME TRUE will bring your worst night terrors to screaming life.
NIGHTMARE: BAD DREAMS COMES TRUE is a classic walk-through haunted house that features downtown fearmeister
Timothy Haskell's trademark theatricality. In celebration of its fifth year at the same venue, a SECOND terrifying haunted attraction has been created: NIGHTMARE LEGENDS. Conceived by Aaron and Justin Haskell, LEGENDS is a classic haunted house from back-in-the-day, with a carnie feel and a cast of legendary horror characters: Werewolf, Blob, Zombie, Vampire, Witch, Frankenstein, Mummy and a maniac with a chainsaw!
On October 20, Psycho Clan will present NIGHTMARE BACKSTAGE, a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the haunted house that includes a panel discussion and demonstrations its creator and designers. All tickets $20.00.
