Having seen Tales from Beyond the Pale performed in-person at The Overlook Film Festival a couple years back, I can say that this is a must-see (and listen) experience for any horror fan. It has just been announced that the horror radio drama will have a live presentation in New York City later this month, featuring two brand new tales:

"New York City, 13 August 2018 — Glass Eye Pix is pleased to announce a brand new live presentation of Glenn McQuaid and Larry Fessenden’s award winning audio drama series, TALES FROM BEYOND THE PALE, now in its eight year of operation. The spooky anthology series takes its cues from the likes of old radio shows The Inner Sanctumand The Mercury Theatre while putting its own rich spin on the audio drama format. With 42 tales under its belt, available on CD, vinyl, and as digital downloads, TALES FROM BEYOND THE PALE offers listeners a thoroughly immersive auditory experience: Observations both personal and political co-mingle with whatever creature, creep, or ghoul Fessenden and McQuaid conjure up.

On Wednesday, August 22 at 7:30 PM, as part of the Lincoln Center’s SCARY MOVIES XI, the evening will feature two brand new tales, Die Sleeping My Sweet by McQuaid, and Blackout by Fessenden, performed live at the Walter Reade Theater, with actors, foley artists, sound designers, and musicians all on stage — it is quite a sight; and if you dare to close your eyes, quite a listen! Also on offer, a very special live presentation of two epic audio poems set for a Tales Halloween release on vinyl. 

Join Tales for "Autumn in August" 2018! "
