Overview
Synopsis
Inner Sanctum plunges audiences into a chilling world where reality and illusion blur through a sinister mobile game called Necronomicon. When teens in a small town become obsessed with the game, their personalities begin to shift, and people start disappearing without a trace. As a police officer and a group of unlikely heroes dig deeper, they uncover a cosmic conspiracy tied to an ancient, otherworldly force threatening humanity. Combining sharp humor, heart-stopping suspense, and Lovecraftian horror, this play explores the dangers of technology, addiction, and what happens when the virtual becomes all too real. Inner Sanctum is a gripping cosmic thriller that will leave audiences questioning who—or what—is truly in control.
