THE BIG HOO-HAA! to Play The Butterfly Club

By:

Are you ready for the spookiest night of your life? Enter the The Big HOO-HAA! Melbourne's Very Haunted House...if you dare!

Melbourne's premier improv troupe return to the Fringe with the spookiest, entertainiest show of your life. For one night only (Monday September 28th), the iconic Butterfly Club will be filled with improvised comedy, ghost stories and discount Draculas.

Hold your breath and roam the halls as The Big HOO-HAA! Melbourne take over the entire building and turn its hallowed halls into a spooktacular experience. Featuring regular improv comedy shows in the main theatre, no space will go unspooked as ghosts, werewolves and spooky skellingtons greet you, serve you drinks and haunt your dreams.

Ticket price gets you admission to the Very Haunted House for up to 6 hours, but you can come and go as you please...if you can find the exit! (actually it's really easy to find).

Starring Melbourne's best improv and comedy talent, this is a one-off experience that's not to be repeated. In fact, when you tell people about it afterwards, they'll say "Why, there's not been a Very Haunted House show in the Melbourne Fringe for nigh on 60 years!" and then they'll laugh and disappear in a cloud of spooky dust!
