“Horror is a place for people to explore darker things.” - Isabella Price
What is the nature of fear and why do we love being scared? The horror genre is an extremely delicate thing. What works, what doesn’t. Women have a particular skill telling stories of the dark side. Join us October 12th for an evening with horror hostess Isabella Price as we navigate the underworld of horror tales. Come on. What are you afraid of?
