PHASMAGORICA (Santa Fe)
The Room Between Worlds
An immersive séance experiment for the curious, the skeptical, and those who suspect the world is stranger than advertised. 13 guests step inside an opulent hexagonal chamber shaped by sacred geometry, immersive light phenomena, and a 13-speaker Dolby Atmos system to pierce the veil of mortality. You are the medium - working with arcane instruments and trigger objects as choices are made, oracles drawn, objects offered, spirits invited, and shadows awakened. At the turn of the century, séances were the most thrilling nights of people's lives - not because they were terrifying, but because they were wondrous! Spooky, social, esoteric, provocative… Phasmagorica revives that forgotten magic. Belief optional. Experience inevitable. After the experiment, you are welcomed into the Salon - a richly appointed room of curiosities, drinks, conversation and post-experiment revelry among the initiated.
Audience Role
Medium - you conduct the séance yourself, working with arcane instruments and trigger objects to attempt spirit contact. You are not asked to believe. You are asked to enter.

About Twilight Disturbances
From the esoteric to the unnerving, evenings with Smith are immersive, adults-only journeys into the paranormal — blending story, mystery, ritual, and dark humor. At the heart is Phasmagorica, a groundbreaking immersive installation: part séance, part experiment, where nine guests step inside an opulent hexagonal chamber shaped by sacred geometry, immersive light phenomena, and a 13-speaker Dolby Atmos system to pierce the veil of mortality — no medium, only you, arcane instruments, trigger objects, and the unknown. Separately, Smith’s live séance work — from private A-list gatherings to his acclaimed pop-up series Society of the Séance — offers intimate, theatrical encounters led by Smith himself, conjuring the spirit of 19th-century occult salons: esoteric, social, and delightfully eerie. A member of the Academy of Magical Arts at the Magic Castle, Smith brings a singular mix of atmosphere, tension, and daring to every experience.
