Ghost, the Swedish rock band, has shared a 30-second teaser trailer for their upcoming cinematic film. The trailer features Papa Emeritus IV, also known as Tobias Forge, dancing on stage in a red suit. The words 'Coming To Cinemas Worldwide' flash on the screen. The teaser also includes a parody of a scene from the movie 'The Exorcist' featuring the character Sister Imperator [6c55528f].

The film is expected to be a combination of a concert and a movie, recorded over two nights at the Kia Forum in California in September 2023. These concerts were unique as mobile phones were strictly prohibited, creating an exclusive experience for the audience. Tobias Forge described these shows as Ghost's 'best' live performances. The film will incorporate footage from these concerts and is compared to Metallica's concert film 'Through the Never' [6c55528f].

No further details about the movie have been announced [6c55528f].

In other music news, Motion City Soundtrack will be performing in Tampa on June 2 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their 2003 album 'I Am The Movie'. The Minneapolis-based rock group will be playing popular Y2K singles from the album, such as 'The Future Freaks Me Out' and 'My Favorite Accident'. The opening acts for the show will be politically punk group The Iron Roses and Albany-based four-piece Prince Daddy & the Hyena. The concert will take place at The Ritz Ybor and tickets are priced at $39.50 [43d89b16].

Meanwhile, Paranormal Cirque, a new touring circus by Cirque Italia, is currently in Rockaway, New Jersey. The circus features masked performers, ghostly apparitions, death-defying stunts, and vampires. Audience members have the option to walk through a horror maze at the circus' entrance. The circus acts are top-notch, with aerialists, jugglers, and large set pieces like a motorcycle balancing act and a wheel of death. The performance includes a light narrative about hauntings and possessions. The show is not family-friendly and has an age restriction of 13 years old. Paranormal Cirque brings a whole new world to the big-top experience, catering to horror fans and those who enjoy Halloween. The show is currently running in Rockaway, New Jersey, until Sunday, June 16 [c151a777].
