A night you'll retell for years

Campfire Stories, Done Right

Dreadtime is a live storytelling show. Pull up a chair around a real fire while our storytellers spin short, spine-tingling tales. Think summer camp legends, meets live theater, meets s'mores.

🔥

Real Crackling Fires

Ten smokeless fire pits light the night. Warm faces, dancing shadows, and zero smoke in your eyes.

🎭

Live Storytellers

A scripted anthology of short scary stories performed live. No screens, no headphones. Just voices in the dark.

🍫

S'mores by Firelight

Add a s'mores kit and roast while you listen. Marshmallows taste better when you're a little bit spooked.

Two shows. One unforgettable night.

Pick Your Fright Level

Every event night has two seatings. Come early with the kids, or stay late for the stories we save for after bedtime.

All Ages Welcome

Good to Know

Where is it?

Event nights take place at outdoor venues across the Dallas-Fort Worth metro. Exact location and directions come with your ticket confirmation.

How scary is it, really?

Family Fire is PG spooky, safe for kids who like Goosebumps. After Dark is for ages 13 and up, and it earns that rating.
