FloridaRAMA guests beware, a new kind of interactive horror is sinking its teeth into the heart of St. Petersburg! Just in time for Halloween, a favorite holiday for St. Pete natives, a new kind of experience will be seeping into the bones of FloridaRAMA, taking over and evolving one of the ever-changing spaces into a unique PG-13 experience.
October 3rd, FloridaRAMA will be featuring the works of visual artist Cody Meacham hidden behind the bright colors and loud noises, nestled in the darkest corner. The chilling experience, Relics & Lore, will truly be a fright to guests.
“Cody has built an experience this city genuinely loves, and he has done it one hand-made gothic detail at a time,” said Liz Dimmitt, CEO of FloridaRAMA. “Bringing Relics & Lore into FloridaRAMA lets his world live somewhere new, and invites our guests to step inside Cody’s incredible imagination to experience an artful tradition a lot of them have only heard about.”
Meacham is widely known around St. Petersburg as the artist behind Radley Relics, specializing in detailed nostalgic miniatures and environments that come to life in miniature dioramas. His cult following loyally tracks each new chapter that’s released and follows Radley Relics to no end, and with the recent collaboration with FloridaRAMA, there is sure to be another exciting addition to the story.
His most famous experience was his own personal project, Radley Haunted House, a 7-year immersive experience in St. Petersburg, FL. that allowed guests to walk through various horrors. A story emerged, surrounding the Radley family and other mythologies Meacham capitalized on. The success of Radley Haunted House led Meacham to find work at Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights, contributing to sets, costumes and even detailing sculptures. He later worked on popular attractions such as Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure™ and Disney’s Jungle Cruise.
Now, a new branch of the Radley House emerges and is brought to life this October 3rd at FloridaRAMA. Guests can immerse themselves in the miniature art Meacham creates, dioramas that are sure to fit in seamlessly within the mists. The previous story of the Radley House expands and reemerges in a new form, continuing on in an eerie atmosphere.
But… what will be in the space? What horrors await guests behind the curtains? The fog is so thick, it’s hard to make out the shapes hidden around the corners.
FloridaRAMA guests eagerly await this new opening, but for the time being, distant ghastly wails are all that can be heard.
