With a loose link to the 6th years' Comparative play, Miller's The Crucible, The Nightmare Realm in Smithfield swallowed Ms McGill, Ms Talbot, the 6th years, and three 5th years whole on Wednesday night, 16th October. 

It featured a maze inspired by the Salem Witch trials, '1692 Possession' where Reverend Parris came face to face with our Parris, performed in class by Finn. The Salem witches lurked behind every dark corner in this immersive experience, the performers were truly passionate in their roles, with superb makeup and costume design. Some students were even treated to an exorcism. We were all feverishly terrified, and incredibly the students went back for more. Our own Skye (dressed up as a character from 'Hamilton') was spotted by the Nightmare Realm team and her photo taken for their socials. Well done to all who survived the Village of Fear!
