🩸 Vampire Circus: The Scariest Side of the Cirque 🧛‍♂️🎪

Get ready for an electrifying night of gothic theater, death-defying acrobatics, and fully immersive storytelling at the Strand Theatre! Vampire Circus – The Scariest Side of the Cirque is a dark fusion of Tim Burton–style whimsy and Cirque du Soleil–level artistry — conceived and created by Francisco Javier Santos, a veteran performer from Varekai.

Inspired by 19th‑century traveling carnivals, this immersive show follows Count Dracula and his gypsy bodyguards as they launch a vampire-run circus to mask a sinister plan for world domination. You’ll witness contortionists, illusionists, aerialists, jugglers, and mischievous clowns in an experience that shatters the fourth wall—blurring the line between spectator and spectacle.

🎟 Tickets are $72.90

⚠️ Jump‑scares?
While Vampire Circus is drenched in eerie atmosphere and haunting visuals, it’s not a jump-scare horror show. The thrills come from breathtaking physical feats and immersive storytelling—not sudden frights.

Join us in the historic Strand Theatre at the Appell Center for an unforgettable night of spine‑tingling wonder, laughter, and jaw‑dropping acrobatics. As the moon rises… the vampire world awakens… if you dare. 🦇
