Get Ready To Be Scared!!!

"I was very much looking forward to this show. I love all things horror and paranormal, however I was not prepared for how genuinely scary this show was! Clever use of sound and lighting to make the audience feel the tension was very effective. The audience was great and so into it. You could hear a pin drop (or we were all screaming!) Truly a wild ride!!!"

My first broadway show!

"I was looking for the perfect show to lose Broadway virginity to, and boy, did I find it! I am a huge horror/thriller fanatic and when I heard that Paranormal Activity would be one of the shows on stage on Broadway, it was a no brainer for me. From the top-tier production—to the impressive and mind-bending jump scares—it was a show I’ll never forget! Bravo! "
