The Dark Carnival is upon us, sprawling beneath the shelter of the northeastern Bittermere Woods. And with it comes the Living Stage. Marionette performances take place out on the stage, some familiar from the past.
The marionette performers are all the same, with one or two additions, but the original Mayhem Troupe performers are there. Is the Dame back?
And why do the grounds leave a niggling feeling that something is different, something not quite Naidem? Something more? Less? It is hard to tell.
Visit the Dark Carnival for yourself to see what is taking place.

The Dark Carnival is associated with Of Masks and Marionettes fairy tale.
