To mark the arrival of autumn, Tibidabo Amusement Park is reviving its La nit de les ànimes [Halloween Night], a horror show for all audiences
The artists from Krüeger Hotel will be breathing new life into the ventriloquist Mary Shaw and her puppet Billy for the Halloween season
In addition, as a new feature, the pastry-maker Christian Escribà will be sweetening up this terrifying event with a cake baked exclusively for the occasion
Tibidabo Amusement Park is opening the Halloween season with a combination of horror and sweets. As of 1 October, the Park will be resuming La nit de les ànimes, a horror show which is to be performed live, for the second year running, by a cast of 15 actors from the infamous Krüeger Hotel, a production from the company Produccions Artístiques a la Carta.
15 performances of the 30-minute show will take place between 1 October and 6 November, at Plaça dels Somnis. The performance times vary depending on the day and can be found on the Park’s website.
La Nit de les Ànimes tells the story of Mary Shaw, an old ventriloquist from Raven's Fair, who used to amaze audiences at Tibidabo in the past. On one of the nights when she was performing, three children sneaked into Mary Shaw's small dressing room, and snatched her star puppet, Billy, to make fun of him. When Mary discovered the nasty trick the children had played, she decided to get her revenge. Unfortunately, however, the children’s parents decided to take the law into their own hands by burning down the place she lived in, the Krüeger Hotel. Mary Shaw’s now back from among the departed, here in 2022, ready to take her revenge on everyone who dares to catch her eye.
In addition to this horror show, anyone visiting Tibidabo during the Halloween season will also have the chance to taste the sweet treat created for the occasion by the famous Barcelona-based pastry-maker, Christian Escribà. We’re talking about a unique product that visitors can purchase from the Escribà food truck, located on the sixth floor of the Park, and from the Escribà de Gran Via pâtisserie, where there’ll also be a photocall inspired by the Krüeger Hotel.
Access to the Park during the Halloween season will be as easy as it is during the rest of the year. Users have the Cuca de Llum, Tibidabo's renovated funicular railway, as their main means of reaching the highest point in Barcelona in under 4 minutes, as well as the T2B and T2C shuttle buses. In this way, the Park is stepping up its environmental commitment to the Collserola Natural Park.
