THE CURSED NIGHT APPROACHES, OR SO THE STORY GOES. WHEN THE CLOCK HITS 3AM THE WOLF RETURNS TO HOPE HILL. THE WISE LEAVE AN OFFERING AT THEIR DOOR; ELSE SHE TAKES WHAT SHE IS OWED.
BUT IT’S ONLY A MYTH… DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR.
Building on the landmark success of Because the Night (2021), Malthouse Theatre ambitiously realises Australia’s next chapter of large-scale immersive theatre. Hour of the Wolf introduces you to Hope Hill, a town that is yours to freely explore on the longest night of the year.
Interweaving stories unravel the disturbing disappearances occurring between the hours of 3am and 4am. Choose which of the ten characters to follow, pick left or right at the end of every scene, and trace this night from different points of view.
Everyone has their own truth in Hope Hill.
Immerse in the stories and indulge your curiosity by venturing off the path to solve side quests that unearth the history of the town - it might take you one step closer to meeting the myth herself.
Unlock the Hour of the Wolf.
