About

Get ready to enter… The School on the Edge of Reality – where Derry's most haunted history collides with its strangest future! Long ago, The Playhouse was a school – but world-renowned paranormal expert Professor Avery Spectra has uncovered its chilling secret. Beneath our reality lurks another school, one where ghouls, ghosts and magical mischief-makers are trained to wreak havoc. And this Halloween, as the veil weakens, a Reality Rift has burst open, letting those fiendish students escape into our world. Already, The Playhouse is transforming room by room into their terrifying training ground… But don't panic just yet! Felix Phantom, Professor Spectra's fearless assistant, is here to lead the charge. With your help, he'll face down monstrous mayhem, stop the Rift from growing, and protect Derry Halloween from being completely overrun by the spookiest, scariest class of creatures you'll never forget.

Make The School on the Edge of Reality the opening act of your Derry Halloween Trail, then let the night unfold with spine-tingling surprises across the city.
