Step into the ultimate Halloween experience with Sancta Susanna, an immersive horror show staged in the eerie Heritage Square Museum Church in Highland Park. Inspired by cult horror classics like Suspiria and The Devils, this site-specific performance follows the terrifying journey of a young nun haunted by satanic visions. As she seeks guidance, she uncovers a dark secret hidden within the convent’s walls. Will she escape, or be consumed by the evil?
The evening kicks off with spine-chilling choral music performed by our chorus of evil nuns, setting the mood for the evening. After the show, stick around for a demonic dance party with a live DJ spinning your favorite macabre hits. Costumes are encouraged, so come dressed for a night of thrills!
Perfect for horror lovers and anyone looking for a unique Halloween event—don’t miss out! Grab your tickets now for just $15-50.
