Silent horror film Nosferatu will be shown at the Ladies Literary Club on Friday, Nov. 20 at 8 p.m. with Blue Dahlia providing live musical accompaniment.The 1922 vampire tale is similar in plot to Bram Stoker's Dracula. It follows Thomas Hutter to Transylvania where he meets Count Orlok who quickly reveals himself to be Nosferatu, or the "Bird of Death."
Blue Dahlia, a Kalamazoo-based band, has years of experience playing for silent films. It was commissioned by the Sound of Silents Film Festival in 1999 but has also released five studio albums and describes its style as "the National Geographic of music...a hybrid mix of world fusion and adult alternative."
This event is free and sponsored by Calvin College's Student Activity Office. For more info, visit the event's Facebook page.
