Wear your scariest Halloween costume and bring your friends - all are welcome! QUADRAMICS THEATRE CO. PRESENTS: "THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE" The Haunting of Hill House is a chilling and mystifying study in mounting terror in which a small group of “psychically receptive” people are brought together at Hill House, a brooding, mid-Victorian mansion known as a place of evil and “contained ill will.” Cut off from the outside world by its remote location and shunned by all who know its forbidding and sinister reputation, Hill House has remained empty and silent except for the daily visits of its grumbling caretaker, Mrs. Dudley. However, its isolation is broken by the arrival of Dr. Montague, an investigator of supernatural phenomena who has been granted a short lease by the present owner. Led by Dr. Montague, visitors Eleanor and Theodora must probe the secrets of the old house and to draw forth the mysterious powers that it is alleged to possess—powers which have brought madness and death to those who have lived therein in the past. Tickets are $10. TAC-e students can purchase $5 tickets. Tickets can be purchased on Locust Walk during the week of the show or at the door.
