Frightinsville was a first-of-its-kind immersive-theatre psychological thriller.
Guests buckled up for a safari-style haunted hayride through the supernatural, without ever leaving their vehicles.
Guests tuned their car stereo to a War-of-the-Worlds–style radio broadcast to catch world-building narrative context for the unnerving scenes within.
Reality unravels into odd dimensions, as your car creeps through the twisted creations of world-class interdisciplinary-artists, with special effects, pyrotechnics, gorey makup, fire spinning, choreographed dancing, sound & lighting design, sculptures, projection art, custom costumes, murals, woven together by a writing team that thrives on spinning up terrifyingly-realistic satire.
A chilling and unforgettable impact is guaranteed—if you live to finish the ride.
All ages. Rated PG-13.
Friday October 27th & Saturday October 28th - 6:30-10:30pm - rain or shine.

Estate of Mind was an intentional co-living community for artists that operated out of Oakhurst Manor in Whitinsville, MA, a storied Victorian manor complex on 25-acres. We ware collectively restoring, revitalizing, and reanimating this historic event venue with the shared goal of creating a sanctuary for the arts.
Estate of Mind was an intentional co-living community for artists that operated out of Oakhurst Manor in Whitinsville, MA, a storied Victorian manor complex on 25-acres. We ware collectively restoring, revitalizing, and reanimating this historic event venue with the shared goal of creating a sanctuary for the arts.
Our goal was to be able to house up to an additional 20 artists in the winter, and to keep our event space accessible to the community year round. To make this happen, we needed to finish some critical infrastructure upgrades to the manor. Frightinsville was a fundraiser, and we asked for our extended community's spreading the word about this creepy car-bound experience, and making this vision possible.
