Insidious: The Further You Fear

ENSEMBLE ARTS PHILLY PRESENTS
IMMERSIVE THEATRICAL HORROR EXPERIENCE
BASED ON INSIDIOUS FILM FRANCHISE,
INSIDIOUS: THE FURTHER YOU FEAR,
 FEBRUARY 22, 2025

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (December 10, 2024) – Ensemble Arts Philly presents a one-of-a-kind immersive horror experience, Insidious: The Further You Fear, an exciting new story conceived within the Insidious universe, at the Miller Theater on February 22, 2025, at 6:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. Brace yourself for the scare of a lifetime that will bring your darkest fears to life right before your eyes, based on the box office hit horror film franchise from Blumhouse, director James Wan, and writer Leigh Whannell.

Insidious: The Further You Fear is a heart-pounding live theatrical experience where the lines between reality and fiction blur, constantly challenging what’s real and what’s imagined, what’s safe and what’s dangerous. This groundbreaking immersive experience is meticulously crafted to always keep the audience on edge, with no fourth wall to separate them – or protect them – from the unfolding terror. Each attendee will go face-to-face with the protagonists, making the audience an integral character in the chilling story as it unravels.

“Ensemble Arts always wants audiences to feel transported, whether by laughter at a comedy show, by a melody from a talented vocalist, or in this case, by blurring the lines between seen and unseen right on Broad Street,” said Frances Egler, Vice President of Theatrical Programming and Presentations. “We encourage Insidious fans and thrill-seekers alike to enter at their own risk – because fear is guaranteed on February 22.”

The exciting new story – incorporating local lore and ghost stories – is hosted as a live event by the “real” Specs and Tucker, the actual paranormal investigators who inspired the first Insidious movie. The “Spectral Sightings Road Show” soon takes a turn for the terrifying, as the infamous duo desperately try to prove they are legitimate ghost hunters. Things start to become very Insidious when a paranormal demonstration goes wrong, and dark forces are inadvertently unleashed. Trapped in a genuinely haunted theater, with something truly sinister lurking backstage, the audience will find themselves under attack from such iconic characters like the Bride in Black, the Wheezing Man, and of course, the terrifying Lipstick Faced Demon.

The iconic Insidious franchise, consistently gaining momentum over the years, is a box office sensation generating more than $742 million in revenue across five highly successful films. The growing legion of fans includes an active community of five million social media followers. However, while the live stage show is a must for Insidious fans, it’s also created for those who don’t know the films, particularly those who love a fun, thrill-filled night out at the theater.

Other featured upcoming performances include An Evening with Josh Gad (January 15, 2025, Perelman Theater); Dusty Slay: The Night Shift Tour (February 1, 2025, Miller Theater); Sam Morril: The Errors Tour (February 6, 2025, Miller Theater); Vitamin String Quartet: The Music of Taylor Swift, Bridgerton, and Beyond (February 12, 2025); Killers of Kill Tony (March 1, 2025, Miller Theater); David Nihill: Shelf Help Tour (March 6, 2025, Perelman Theater); Sheng Wang (March 7, 2025, Miller Theater); and Jimmy Carr: Laughs Funny (June 23, 2025, Miller Theater).
