Before horror movies filled with special effects & jump scares kept us up at night, audiences got scared the old-fashioned way: through storytelling. In this class, students will practice the art & craft of telling scary stories. Whether ghost stories, campfire tales, or true stories, students will explore the elements of what makes a story truly frightening and frighteningly true, while developing their own stories for performance. This class includes a scary storytelling showcase for friends & family. There is no prerequisite for this class.
This course will focus on:
- Finding inspiration and sources for scary stories
- Building suspense and tension in the audience
- Creating audience engagement through details and specifics
- Performance techniques for telling your stories to an audience
