About “Raise Your Hand… From the DEAD!!”
Ten years after a string of unsolved murders, dead bodies start to appear again, so Private Investigator Shaker brings in the disgraced former officer in charge, retired Animal Control Detective Palmer, for questioning. Palmer claims innocence and blames the murders on a living, disembodied hand. At first suspicious of Palmer, Shaker is convinced when attacked by the hand herself. Now the two of them must team up to solve this mystery before the body count rises.
Originally running in serialized form in Sacred Fools’ long-running, late-night hit Serial Killers in 2020, “Raise Your Hand... From the DEAD!!” was left in limbo when COVID hit. Now at long last, learn how the story ends!
“This show is hands down the scariest hand-based show I’ve ever handed in,” said Playwright, Actor and Hand Enthusiast Natalie Nicole Dressel. “I give it two (dismembered) thumbs up!”
“Raise Your Hand… From the DEAD!!” is produced for Sacred Fools by Cj Merriman and Producing Director Scott Leggett, who appear in the show alongside Dressel, Marian Gonzalez, Angela Oliver, Ian Walker Price and Tee Vaden. Key art is by Michelle Hanzelova.
