The Thing meets The Crucible. Terminator meets Turn. First contact. Last stand. The future is history.
Centuries before a cylindrical spacecraft famously crashed on a farm
in Grovers Mill, something horrific hurtled to a field in central New
Netherland. From the folks who brought you THE WOLF OF WASHINGTON FORGE comes THE THING AT RARITAN LANDING! Another immersive theatrical haunt set in colonial New Jersey.
A shape-shifting alien with a gruesome life-cycle. A time-traveling hero from beyond the stars. A test of humanity in the town church. And a shocking denoument that will leave you breathless. The X Files has nothing on this 18th century tale of alien invasion. But these Men In Black wear capotains and doublets not business suits.
Join the Puritan villagers as they track this outer space invader before it kills again! It could be any one of them. It might be the cobbler, the gunsmith, the wheelwright. It might be you! Whose blood will crawl from the hot needle, so to speak? Find out, my friends! And trust no one!
