“Amystika” is Greek word meaning “the secret place.” Criss Angel is of Greek descent. His real name is Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nFun fact: Amystika is the name of a garden at Criss Angel’s house. As for it being “secret,” well, it’s on the Internet, not so much.<\/p>\n
The announcement begins by checking off several gobbledygook boxes: “Criss Angel’s Theater comes alive in an immersive, interactive spectacle that rewinds time to the days before he was the Mindfreak.”<\/p>\n
Fun fact: Every news release about anything Las Vegas-related has contained the words “immersive” and “interactive” since 2019. It’s the law.<\/p>\n
The announcement gets better, of course.<\/p>\n
“‘Amystika’ conjures the fantastical and the mysterious and unleashes a visual feast of hope and triumph, proving that anything is possible when you believe in your dreams. This euphoric, enigmatic world pushes the boundaries of reality like never before as a real firestorm ignites and engulfs a human body, a tornado rages through the theater and a blizzard of snow falls so heavy it challenges the audience to see their own hands.”<\/p>\n
Angel and Dragone collaborating is like two runaway trains pulling freight cars loaded with weaponized WTF barreling toward each other at 100 miles an hour. It’s impossible to not watch.<\/p>\n
