The Misericordia University Dead Alchemist Society is planning to present an expanded spectacle for the student organization’s 20th annual “Things that go Boom in the Night!” on Wednesday, October 26 at 7 p.m. in the Wells Fargo Amphitheater on campus. The event is open free to the public.

The popular event features experiments that show fire-breathing, vomiting and exploding pumpkins, exploding balloons, and new experiments with magical ink and fiery flames. The Dead Alchemist Society will also offer new and expanded activities for children, including disappearing ink, chemiluminescence and interactive stations that include milk designs and making slime.

There will also be free candy for children, and a bake sale and basket raffle that benefits the Misericordia University Dead Alchemist Society.
