Enter a world where mystery reigns and music stirs the soul. This Halloween, immerse yourself in a cinematic experience for a one-of-a-kind viewing of the silent-era thriller, The Hands of Orlac.
This thrilling story of madness, mystery, and romance, with flavours of the Grand Guignol, is now reawakened by a powerful cast of over 50 live musicians, singers, and soloists set to capture your senses.
Presented in the grand, gothic beauty of Metropolitan United Church—transformed for one unforgettable night—this event offers a rare chance to witness a masterpiece of psychological drama in a setting as dramatic as the film itself. Glowing jack-o’-lanterns, evocative lighting, and shadow-draped architecture set the stage for a journey into obsession, identity, and the unknown.
🎬 Directed by: Robert Wiene
