"All I Loved, I Loved Alone" – A Night of Victorian Horror Stories

Step into the eerie world of Victorian horror as Night Terrors returns for its spine-chilling fourth season at the Rosemount Museum. This year's theme, "All I Loved, I Loved Alone," draws inspiration from the dark tales of isolation, madness, entombment, and forbidden love that haunted the Victorian imagination.

Join Searcher Collective (formerly Artists Anonymous) for an unforgettable evening of storytelling where acclaimed Colorado actors transport you into Edgar Allan Poe’s nightmarish world in an intimate, environmental theater experience like no other. Adapted just for you by Thomas Jancis, these chilling stories will transport you to a time when the supernatural was feared and the unknown was just a heartbeat away.

Dare to descend into the world of shadows, where the past comes alive and nightmares dwell. Night Terrors Season 4 promises an evening of fear, fascination, and haunting beauty. Will you face the darkness alone?

Most recently he worked with the same team from Patient in the Atlanta 48-hour film festival on a film called Re Inc for which he was nominated for Best Actor out of over 80 films.  In his spare time, Izzo plays piano, soccer, guitar and likes to be outdoors in any capacity including rock climbing.
