Get FREE Tickets to an Advance Screening of The Forest
ChicagoHorror.com has 75 Admit Two tickets to a special advance screening of the new supernatural thriller from Gramercy Pictures THE FOREST on Wednesday, January 6th at the Hollywood Blvd. Cinema in Woodridge, IL. You can claim yours at http://www.gofobo.com/ForestDC.
The forest is real. Rising with terrifying grandeur at the base of Mr. Fuji in Japan, the legendary real-life Aokigahara Forest is the suspense-filled setting of the supernatural thriller The Forest.
An American woman, Sara (played by Natalie Dormer of Game of Thrones and The Hunger Games), journeys to the forest in search of her twin sister Jess (also played by Ms. Dormer), who has mysteriously disappeared. Frustrated at Jess’ pattern of behavior, Sara’s husband Rob (Eoin Macken ofThe Night Shift) is unable to talk his wife out of making the 6,000-mile trip.
After a visit to the school where Jess teaches, the resourceful Sara sets out for the forest itself. Accompanied by a charismatic new acquaintance, expatriate journalist Aiden (Taylor Kinney of Chicago Fire), she enters the forest having been well warned to “stay on the path.” Forest guide Michi (Japanese star Yukiyoshi Ozawa) keeps a protective eye on them both, but when night falls he cannot dissuade them from staying in the forest, and reluctantly leaves the duo to face the elements alone.
Fear soon fragments Sara’s consciousness; she begins to question Aiden’s motives, including his claim that he has never seen Jess. Determined to discover the truth about her sister’s fate, Sara will have to face the angry and tormented souls of the dead that prey on anyone who dares come near them. These malevolent spirits lying in wait for Sara at every turn will plunge her into a frightening darkness from which she must fight to save herself.
Tickets are first-come, first-served, and you are advised to arrive to the screening early as your ticket does not guarantee seating.
THE FOREST opens nationwide on Friday, January 8th.

Krampus!
He sees you when you’re sleeping. He knows when you’re awake. He knows if you’ve been bad or good, so be good…or he’ll beat you with switches and rusty chains, stuff you in a basket and drag you to the fiery depths below…
…Oh yes, boys and girls, Krampus is coming.
It isn’t enough that a family has to deal with the usual drama that comes with Christmas, but the Murray family has to do it in the isolation of a cabin in the woods, during a snow storm with a holiday devil running amok and only some peppermint schnaps to get them through it. Will there be enough Christmas spirit for all to survive?
This holiday season Strangeloop Theatre presents “Krampus!” written by Company Member Jacyln Jensen and Mike Wozniak and directed by Company Member Maria Burnham.
The cast includes: Jean E. Burr, Justin Fill, Sean Harklerode, Stefanie Johnsen, Allison McCorkle, Paul Tinsley, Michael Wagman, Christopher Paul Mueller and Chad Wise.
Who is Krampus? In European folklore, Krampus is the hell-bound companion of Saint Nicholas. With cloven hooves, a long tongue and goat-like horns, Krampus (also known as Black Peter) punishes the naughty children while Saint Nicholas rewards the good.
This year Strangeloop expands its annual holiday show from two nights in one location to four nights in two locations. Krampus will be all around.
All performances begin at 7:30 p.m. On Monday, December 7, and Tuesday, December 8, you can find “Krampus!” at Mary’s Attic in Andersonville (5400 N. Clark St., Chicago, 60640). And on Monday, December 14, and Tuesday, December 15, “Krampus!” will be at Underground Wonder Bar in River North (710 N. Clark St., Chicago 60654).
Tickets are $10 in advance via Brown Paper Tickets (http://www.brownpapertickets.
