Dark Christmas: Krampus

Norwich Arts Centre is bringing Krampus to its candlelit gothic church on Monday 21 December, as part of their Dark Christmas series. It's the 2015 film from Legendary Pictures, a darkly festive tale about a yuletide ghoul, and seeing it in a candlelit church fits the mood pretty well.

The story follows a dysfunctional family clashing over the holidays, and when young Max turns his back on Christmas, he unleashes the wrath of Krampus — a demonic force of ancient evil intent on punishing non-believers. From there, beloved holiday icons take on a monstrous life of their own. It's a 15+ screening, so keep that in mind if you're thinking of bringing younger ones along.

It's a seated screening, and the film runs for 120 minutes. Doors open at 6:00 PM, with the film starting at 9:00 PM, so there's plenty of time to settle in before the main event. Tickets start from £6.50 for supporter concessions, and £8 for standard entry. If you're under 26, it's free, and NAC supporters save between £1.50 and £3.50 per ticket, plus 10% off at the bar.
