Previews: AMITYVILLE 74 at Carrollwood Cultural Center
October 14, 2025 Director Josh Eberhard explains, “The heart of this production isn’t about horror for horror’s sake—it’s about empathy within darkness. By blending fact with feeling, we invited the audience to witness the humanity behind the headlines. Because ultimately, the story of Amityville ’74 isn’t just about what happened in one house—it’s about what happens when trauma, addiction, and abuse go unseen until it’s too late.”About the Theatre
