In the U.S., horror stands as the second favorite TV and movie genre among Gen Zers (aged 13-26), a demographic that often values experiences over material goods.

The growing popularity of the horror genre among this ticket-buying demographic is due to its ability to anticipate themes that relate to young adults. It’s the best time for unconventional magicians delving into the dark realms of spirit summoning and otherworldly narratives to adapt to changing audiences and entertain in a way that resonates with new and seasoned viewers.

Like a horror movie providing cathartic relief for anxiety and depression, your show’s success relies on a relevant connection with the audience. Modern magicians understand that traditional props and tired spooky tropes feel cliché, leading to less-than-enthusiastic responses. The content of their shows often lacks the impact suggested by their marketing. There is a craving for fresh material that elicits genuine audience reactions, talked about long after the show.

Entertainers in our alternative genre often face challenges in obtaining the necessary resources for effects and props to craft a unique and intense show. If you’re prepared to integrate theater, horror, and magic to produce a truly immersive and terrifying experience, elevating your performance beyond your audience’s expectations, then you’ve come to the right place. I’m here to assist you in showcasing the frightening nature of your performance.
