Overview

Take a trip to A Midnight Visit and you're guaranteed an eerie night out. Imagine a fully immersive theatre experience with a choose-your-own-adventure twist — and lots of macabre nods to Edgar Allan Poe — and you'll have some idea of what to expect. It's been delivering exactly that to Brisbanites since July, all in a disused Fortitude Valley warehouse; however, it has something a little special up its sleeves for Halloween.

Between Friday, October 29–Sunday, October 31, the captivating part performance, part playground and part film set experience is hosting a Halloween Festival. There'll be more characters prowling its halls, and more circus, dance and music, too. Halloween-themed cocktails, DJs and live tunes at the onsite Raven's Rest bar, and even fortune-telling and magic are also on the agenda.

Obviously, this is the perfect time to plunge into A Midnight Visit's unsettling 36-room setup, and to soak in the show's intricate design, epic scale and explosive energy. It's all brought to life by a team of 100-plus creatives, including actors, circus performers, musicians, dancers and burlesque artists, plus a crew of innovative sound, film-set and costume designers.

Expect an air of David Lynch, some Stanley Kubrick vibes and even a hint of Stranger Things, with a spot of steampunk thrown in for good measure. It's the largest immersive theatre piece to be staged in Australia so you can expect the experience to be a wild ride.

And yes, because it's Halloween, donning costume is recommended — complete with prizes for the best-dressed patrons.
