It's just another October at Mountain View Cemetery and Mausoleum.

WICKED LIT 2012 will feature three chilling world premiere theatrical adaptations of classic terror tales presented live at a working mausoleum and cemetery. 

Follow an obsessed travel writer with a taste for the fantastic, two frightened young lovers with deep family secrets, and a desperate father being held hostage by a lustful vampiress in what is sure to be the sexiest, scariest, and most immersive WICKED LIT yet! You and your group will experience
these three short plays as you are led through the cemetery and grounds by a Storyguide.

Recommended for ages 13 and up.

Here’s what’s on offer:

The Dead Smile

Count Magnus

Wake Not the Dead  (I’ll bet that title is a bit of Monday morning quarterbacking)

And take heed of the Wicked Lit disclaimer: If you do not enjoy heightened situations, intense dramatic tension, or anything having to do with ghost stories, this may not be the production for you.

One ticket buys one night and three plays. If you dare.
