About this show

A dark and stormy night. A vampire’s castle outlined by lightning. An hour to find and kill the dreaded fiend... and one idiot trying to manage the escalating chaos. Join a fast-paced, hilariously deadly choose-your-own adventure. Think Knightmare meets Traitors, presented by the lovechild of Vincent Price and Alex Horne... Shortlisted for the Glitch Award at the Lambeth Fringe. Audience reviews: 'Brilliant, slick, funny, 10/10 would go again', 'My favourite theatrical experience of the year'. Equal parts comedy, horror, game and show. And it’s absolutely the most fun you can have dying horribly.
