Each performer will do stage sets as well as interact with guests on the floor as original sci-fi characters that they've either created just for this occasion or perhaps some old favorites that they have always wanted to bring to life.
Note: Our performers are required to embody the characters they've chosen to become ALL NIGHT. Please don't ask them personal questions or try to force them to break character. It's a dick move.

This is not a séance. This is not a ghost hunt. This is a night of chilling personal stories, impossible experiences, and open discussion about the mysteries that refuse to be buried. No gimmicks. No special effects. Just the kind of conversations that leave you staring at the ceiling long after the lights go out. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or someone who simply enjoys the macabre, you’re invited to share your own encounters with the strange and unknown. Because we all have a story of the unexplained… and Geoff wants to hear yours.
Bring your curiosity. Bring your skepticism. Just don’t come alone.
