Halloween Comes Early as Gothic Horror Comedy Debuts this October at Planet Ant

HAMTRAMCK, MICH – Planet Ant invites audiences to the Ant Hall this October for the debut of the original horror comedy, My Daddy is Haunted!

A long time ago, in a small eastern European town , Sterling Mandrake (a really evil warlock), was accused of heresy and burned alive by a righteous nun trying to save the

village. For 164 years his castle lay dormant, perched upon a crumbling mountain. That is until the Maplesquatch family arrives.

My Daddy is Haunted! follows the Maplesquatch family on a vacation they’ll never forget. Father Orwin, (A dorky but loving father) surprises his wife Margo (A bestselling romance author), Teenage daughter Leona (She’s going through a phase right now), and son Linus (a 10 year old yo-yo master) with a trip to the ancient castle for some family fun. The fun soon turns to terror as something starts to happen to dear old dad.

Is that creepy painting alive? What’s with all the bugs? Is their daddy haunted? Come

find out for yourself. If you dare!

Writer and director, Scott Sanford, says, “If you like gothic horror, Edgar Allan Poe and

haunted castles mixed with 1980s style comedy in the spirit of National Lampoons

Vacation, then this is the show for you!”

My Daddy is Haunted! is the ultimate way to celebrate the spooky season with

performances running October 9th-24th, plus a special Halloween night performance on

October 31st with a costume karaoke after party!
