PREPARE TO BE TREATED!

Spend a night of devilish delights at IU Auditorium this Halloween with DENNIS JAMES and The Cat and the Canary. Dennis James is the world-renowned organist who has breathed new life into the silent film era taking his accompaniments to theatres and movie houses across the globe. The silent classic The Cat and the Canary is the blueprint for the haunted house thriller. A greedy family brought together to hear a rich uncle’s will, human frailty, and eerie circumstance provide a white-knuckle ride of cinematic creepiness.

James’ performances have been an IU Auditorium tradition for decades, delighting audiences young and old. With the stars of yesteryear on the silver screen, and one of the stars of today on the keys of the
glorious Roosevelt Pipe Organ, this Halloween will be a truly enchanted evening. So grab the family, dress in your Halloween costume, and come be a part of IU Auditorium’s ghoulishly good time.
