EVIL DEAD THE MUSICAL Kicks Off Halloweek

Las Vegas' only show with a Splatter Zone is stepping up its game for the Halloween season, and is celebrating the season with "Halloweek" now through Saturday November 1st.

"Fans come from all over the world to see the show, and this time of year is even crazier than usual," says director and producer Sirc Michaels, "Halloween falls on a Friday, which is great, but why limit the best holiday of the year to just one day? Every day at our show is Halloween, and we wanted to do something special for the entire week to celebrate."

In addition to the show's normal performances, the team behind the most unlikely hit on the Strip have worked to add the following touches:

1. A costume contest open to any attendees in costume on Friday 10/31 and Saturday 11/1 - fans are encouraged to attend the show in their undead best and be a part of the contest!

2. Extra blood for the Splatter Zone - because sometimes 20 gallons of fresh warm blood just isn't enough!

3. Additional "Halloweek" touches throughout the performances to celebrate the holidays. These could be little "easter eggs" or could be blatant references to classic films or maybe even an appearance from a classic horror character or two. These will change from night to night so no 2 shows will ever be the same this week.

The Halloweek performances are expected to sell out in advance, so people are encouraged to get their tickets before they are all gone.

Endorsed by Bruce Campbell and embraced by Sam Raimi, EVIL DEAD THE MUSICAL is the official live stage show of the cult classic film trilogy. Since October of 2011 this award winning production has been thrilling audiences with its combination of multimedia, live performance, audience participation, and 4D elements. Performances can be seen at the V Theater inside Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino Tuesdays through Fridays at 10 p.m. and Saturdays at 11:30 p.m. More information about the show can be found at: http://www.evildeadvegas.com.
