MODERN-day freak show The Circus of Horrors has a brand new show, and it’s coming to Burnley on February 16.

Following on the huge success of The Asylum, The Circus of Horrors has had a major revamp and is back rocking and shocking with The Day of the Dead — inspired by the Mexican festival.

The show is set in Mexico during the early 1900s. The cast of chaosmongers transport the body of their doyen Dr Haze to a remote area of Mexico.

In a former burial ground of Aztec warriors, they join in the local inhabitants’ Day of the Dead rituals to try to revive their esteemed leader.

All of course with disastrous consequences.

* The Circus of Horrors, Mechanics, Burnley, Tuesday, February 16. For tickets call box office on 01282 664400.
