Medieval Macabre II
Two road weary travelers seek shelter from an impending storm in a country estate. The owner is a man with insight into the supernatural. They soon find themselves engaged in a literary debate with the accommodating yet mysterious host. A wager is set and the travelers begin a harrowing journey through the library of this eccentric man; a journey that will take them further into the depths of evil, both human and otherwise, than they could have ever imagined.
The wager: Can literature be frightening?
The Baron’s Men are going to show you just how scary literature can be in this original work written by Board member Cherie Weed. We will show you the supernatural, the superstitions, and the super psychotic that riddle the pages of time. You will come face to face with a werewolf, a troll, ghosts, demons, and deranged humans with inner demons of their own.
This fast paced, visually exciting play will thrill you and make you rethink literary legends. The mischief, mayhem, and ghoulish goodies will set the tone in the Malady Marketplace preceding the show. An evening that is truly unique and very scary awaits you, if you dare.
