WHY?
SPOOK SHOWS were a massively popular form of entertainment that have a long and now, somewhat obscure history. They were essentially OLD-SCHOOL traveling HORROR-THEMED MAGIC SHOWS that scared the hell out of audiences across the country. Running from the 1930s to the 1970s, SPOOK SHOWS eventually died off and now, we at EXOTIKON have decided to bring back the TRUE SPOOK SHOW EXPERIENCE! PEEKABOO GALLERY known for its curation of vintage history. We are currently working on a beautiful art book of this colorful subject. This October, we will share with you our passion of this lost art form and vast collection of authentic artifacts in an all-new immersive experience!
WHERE?
This incredible event will be held at the historic, original 1923 MAYAN THEATER in Downtown Los Angeles. Join us as we fill this wonderful auditorium with more THRILLS and CHILLS than your heart can stand! This is the FINAL SHOW AT THE MAYAN BEFORE IT CLOSES. Don’t miss this opportunity to see for the LAST TIME!
