Featured on Variety: Ludacris, Questlove to Perform at Welcome to Blumhouse Live Event

Featured on Hollywood Reporter: Amazon's Welcome to the Blumhouse Series Kicks Off With Virtual Premiere Event, Whodunnit-Themed After Party

Welcome to the Blumhouse Live was an interactive, virtual event created by Little Cinema to promote Blumhouse’s new films on Amazon Prime Video. Sending audiences into the Blumhouse, guests could explore room to room and uncover the dark secrets held within. Themes and references to the first four movies in the series – The Lie, Nocturne, Black Box, and Evil Eye – were loosely tied together to build the narrative, with plenty of Easter eggs for fans of other Blumhouse properties, such as Insidious and Get Out.
