MASKED musicians Platypus are living up to their spooky reputation by going all out and hosting an “ultimate Halloween experience” called Rigor Mortis.

It will take place at a secret location in Southend, to be revealed when you have bought a ticket.

The event promises to be a “spine-chilling mix of music, theatre, magic and dark cabaret”.

Performances come from “some of the weirdest acts seen anywhere on the globe”, such as Vomiting Victor Die the gore illusionist and his autopsy orchestra, General Grotesque the lacerator and Vikki Vestigial, Globo Tripas and his twisted balloons, plus knife throwing, glass-walking, psychic surgery and “a zombie massacre”.

Top of the bill will, of course, be Platypus themselves, with a horror disco continuing until 2am.

Tickets for this event are £6, available from digitalsellz.com/p/NTQ0Nw The night starts at 8pm.
