Spooky season is technically not right around the corner, but let’s face it. We’ve been ready for Halloween since last Halloween. And if you’re looking for a fun activity for one of America’s favorite holidays, Candlelight Halloween is back in Seattle this October. This time, the series has got two super special Halloween concerts planned that might just about raise the hairs on the back of your neck. Celebrate Halloween with an atmospheric evening filled with classic renditions of some of your favorite haunting melodies, from the theme from The Addams Family to ‘Lullaby‘ from Pan’s Labyrinth.
All of these songs, and more, will be played by a talented string quartet in atmospherically chilling venues made even more ominous by a sea of flickering candlelight. The spacious Museum of Flight that houses one of the largest air and space collections in the US, as well as the elegant Sparkman Cellars winery are opening their doors to these ooky-spooky events coming soon to Seattle.
Candlelight: A Haunted Evening of Halloween Classics
This season, you can catch a Halloween concert at two different venues in Seattle, The Museum of Flight and Sparkman Cellars. Lit up with rows of candles that cast a festive orange glow on the walls, these unexpected concert venues sure do offer excellent acoustics and facilities so that you have the best experience.
You can expect to hear tunes from classic films associated with Halloween like “Tubular Bells”, the theme from The Exorcist, and the prelude from Psycho by Bernard Herrmann. But it doesn’t end there. For fans of classical music, you’ll hear some extra eerie compositions like Gounod’s “Funeral March of a Marionette” serenading your deepest fears. There is something to tingle everybody’s spine at these Candlelight concerts.
Fans of the dark and mysterious will love these ghostly Candlelight concerts – they’ll be the treat to your trick and bring you an experience you won’t be able to forget in a hurry. Grab your spookiest costumes, and venture out into the evening this Halloween to hear the somber sounds of this string quartet in the most atmospheric locations.
