Come in, come in! Enter into the spectral shadows of St.John’s Sanctuary which has sat quietly for 190 years in the heart of historical Greenwich Village. But, now…lit by flickering candlelight, bathed in ghostly mist, the players at the award-winning, critically-acclaimed Radiotheatre hope to chill the marrow in your bones as they present their annual EDGAR ALLAN POE FESTIVAL! This festival we will not only perform some of the great POE classics…but, we’ll also present works by other authors who had been inspired by the Grand Master Of Horror like BRAM STOKER, H.P.LOVECRAFT, ROBERT E.HOWARD and more! As usual, every RADIOTHEATRE production comes complete with its stellar storytellers, original orchestral scores and a plethora of sound FX! Just bring your imagination!

These chilling tales are narrated and acted by a dynamic group of storytellers that includes Frank Zilinyi, R. Patrick Alberty, Alejandro Cardozo, Annemarie Hagenaars, and Caitlin Boyle. Wes Shippee acts as the Festival’s sound engineer. The venue couldn’t be more perfect (unless maybe it was a cemetery or a crypt, but that would be challenging …Read more
