Days of the Dead Festival

Frigid New York gives you the chills in a festival inspired by Mexico's dead-lifting Día de los Muertos. The lineup includes more than a dozen shows on themes of mortality and the afterlife, each performed as many as three times; among them are Mark-Eugene Garcia's Chupacabra story Goat Blood, Eve Blackwater's folk-noir survey Brokeneck Girls: The Murder Ballad Musical!, Laurel Mora's family-history drama This House Is Haunted, Michael Hagins's fright-flick All Hallow's Eve, Christina Rose Ashby's poetry session Poe's Children and David Lawson's solo show Horror Helps.
