PARANORMAL ACTIVITY COMING TO CORK!

The Everyman is thrilled to announce that the West End smash hit Paranormal Activity is coming to Cork in May 2027 as part of a major UK and Ireland tour. Tickets on sale soon.

Next summer, Irish audiences will get the chance to experience this chilling theatrical experience and witness the haunting phenomenon that has taken the West End by storm.

Praised for its inventive storytelling and terrifying atmosphere, Paranormal Activity is a must-see event for thrill-seekers and theatre lovers alike.

James and Lou move from Chicago to London to escape their past, but they soon discover that places aren’t haunted, people are. This thrilling West End hit is inspired by the iconic, hugely popular film series, Paranormal Activity, with a brand-new story live on stage.

Now embarking on its first ever UK and Ireland tour after a sell-out, extended run in London, this chilling production promises to keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Hold your nerve…

A new story inspired by the worldwide horror phenomenon, Paranormal Activity is directed by immersive theatre pioneer and Punchdrunk’s Founder and Artistic Director, Felix Barrett and written by playwright Levi Holloway, whose pulse-pounding theatrical thriller Grey House chilled Broadway audiences.

Blurring the line between cinema and live theatre, Paranormal Activity has been hailed as a ‘relentlessly frightening – arm-clutchingly, stranger-embracingly so’ (Metro) theatrical experience — leaving audiences jumping out of their seats and questioning what’s lurking in the dark long after the curtain falls.

Released by Paramount Pictures in 2009, the original Paranormal Activity film is a master class in psychological terror.  Reimagining the found footage genre for a new generation, the film became a global sensation, grossing nearly $200 million worldwide and kicking off a blockbuster franchise spanning seven feature films. Now, the legacy of fear comes to the intimate world of the theatre as the terrifying phenomenon transitions to the stage.

Get ready to experience Paranormal Activity in real life.
