Event Summary
🔪 NERD NITE HORROR EDITION: COULD YOU SURVIVE A HORROR MOVIE?
The killer is in the house. Your car won’t start. Your friend just said, “I’ll be right back.”
What do you do?
For one night, Nerd Nite Colorado Springs is turning into an interactive horror movie survival experiment.
We’re teaming up with the hosts of Slasher & The Final Girls for a night of horror, psychology, crime scene investigation, audience participation, and some very questionable life-or-death decisions.
Throughout the night, you and your team will be dropped into classic horror movie scenarios and asked to decide what you would do to survive.
Run upstairs or out the front door?
Investigate the mysterious noise or absolutely not?
Split up or stay together?
And what does actual science, psychology, and investigative experience say about your odds?
Between scenarios, our speakers will dig into the real-world ideas behind horror movie survival, including crime scene investigation, human behavior, psychology, and the ways movies get all of it spectacularly right or wrong.
Come with your own Survivor Squad of four or grab an individual ticket and we’ll place you with a team when you arrive.
No horror expertise required. Just bring your best instincts, a willingness to argue with your teammates, and perhaps a healthy distrust of basements.
This is not a traditional Nerd Nite. Expect audience participation, team challenges, expert commentary, and a night that gets progressively more ridiculous as we find out who actually has what it takes to make it to the final scene.
Will your team survive?
There’s only one way to find out. 🔪🍿🩸
