Following their well-received improvised live film score to Häxan last year, INVITATION TO LOVE (Laura Groves, Fran Lobo, Hopping Corpse and Auclair) collaborate again to present Herk Harvey’s Carnival of Souls. They come together through a shared enjoyment of sound, weird and wonderful films and creative community. 

“A young woman (Candace Hilligoss) in a small Kansas town survives a drag race accident, then agrees to take a job as a church organist in Salt Lake City. En route, she is haunted by a bizarre apparition that compels her toward an abandoned lakeside pavilion. Made by industrial filmmakers on a small budget, the eerily effective B-movie classic Carnival of Souls was intended to have “the look of a Bergman and the feel of a Cocteau”—and, with its strikingly used locations and spooky organ score, it succeeds. Herk Harvey’s macabre masterpiece gained a cult following on late-night television and continues to inspire filmmakers today.” - Criterion Collection
