Griffin Ballet presents Ghosts 2026

Darkness falls across the land.

A town settles into the shadows as the first trick-or-treaters disappear into the streets. The Mayor keeps watch, determined to maintain order as the night grows stranger.

But something is stirring.

From forgotten rooms and moonlit streets come Ghouls, Skeletons, and the Dead Brides. The living and the dead begin to cross paths, and the town slips further into a world where nothing is as it seems.

And then… He arrives.

The Master of Ceremonies. He knows what waits in the darkness. He knows the secrets of the night.

Through Michael Jackson’s haunting catalog, the story unfolds in a world of shadows, suspense, and the supernatural. The Mayor tries to stop what has begun. The trick-or-treaters run deeper into the night. The dead awaken. And the Ghosts are waiting.

"Before the Haunting - Ghosts" is a full-length ballet filled with thrilling choreography, haunting music, and supernatural suspense.

This is not the haunting…This is what came before.
