Romance Is Dead

Sick of swooning? Fed up with fairytales? Cynical of chivalry? This February – we’re calling out to all of you blue hearts who prefer the chill of a thrill over a Hallmark love story. Romance Is Dead is a tantalizing collection of tragic theatrical treats. But make no mistakes… This series is less of a celebration than it is a cautionary tale of the dark side of desire. From haunted hotels to macabre matrimony to cannibal crushes to famous femme fatales – we’re exposing the true meaning of “Till death do us part.”
