James and Lou move from Chicago to London to escape the past… but they soon discover that places aren’t haunted—people are.

This original stage play in the Paranormal Activity franchise brings the chilling horror of the hit films to life in a new way. Written by Chicago playwright Levi Holloway (Broadway’s Grey House) and Felix Barrett of Punchdrunk (Sleep No More), with jaw-dropping illusions designed by Tony Award winner Chris Fisher (Stranger Things: The First Shadow, Harry Potter & The Cursed Child), the production pushes live theater into a new realm of fear.

Audiences will be among the first to experience this North American premiere at Chicago Shakespeare Theater before it travels to Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. later this season.

If you’re a fan of horror theater, live immersive performances, or the Paranormal Activity movies, this show is a must-see. Prepare to question what’s real, what’s illusion, and what will follow you home.
