Circus Dracul
History of Fire
History of Fire
Circus Dracul is a sharp-witted, high-energy performing duo serving up a fang-tastic mix of juggling, comedy, magic, and knife throwing—with a Transylvanian twist!
At the heart of the act are Lucian Dracul, the stern and skillful ringmaster of the macabre, and Trixie Twinkletoes, a mischievous jester with a pun for every perilous stunt. Legend has it she was “rescued” by Lucian… though who’s rescuing whom is still up for debate.
With a performance style that's edgy, comedic, and surprisingly family-friendly, Circus Dracul keeps audiences of all ages spellbound—and giggling—at Renaissance festivals and beyond. Whether they're juggling blades, cracking jokes, or defying danger, they promise just one thing:
You’ll leave thoroughly entertained… and possibly questioning your definition of “sane.”

All journeys need musical accompaniment! Rob the Wandering Bard weaves his voice and strings into the fabric of an enchanted day at the faire. He travels the paths with you, gathering friends along the way.
True to his name, this bard wanders the grove in search of all those who enjoy music and laughter. Our beloved bard shares stories through song and lyrical verses you recognize, reinvented for the fanciful world of the faire.
Special Appearances:
Haughton Hussars
The ring of steel on steel will lead you to our Battle Mound and the Haughton Hussars! They are a licensed nonprofit steel fighting team based out of Northwest Louisiana. Their mission is to educate and promote history, using team coordinated activities and fellowship through combat.
They have been in operation as a standing team for three years and pride themselves on the relationships they create as they continue to revive the image and attitude of medieval knights.
Wearing real armor and wielding actual weapons, they will dazzle with the spectacle of how knightly battles might have looked. Between unscripted clashes between seasoned fighters, you'll be regaled with particulars on what it takes to don a helm and take a hit.

After Hours: Blaggards
Saturday, November 7 @ 7pm
Join us at Whispering Grove Faire for a night with our favorite Stout Irish Rock band! We owe much to these magnificent musicians. Find out more about them at their official website.
Blaggards helped us kick off our first season in the fall of 2024, when we were trying to get our legs under us. In 2025, they and the Logon Cafe in Beaumont hosted an evening of celebration and fundraising that will forever fill our hearts with gratitude. Their charity performance energized the crowd, with proceeds going toward the growth of the faire. There is no greater treasure than the support of good people!
This fall, Blaggards return to Whispering Grove Faire once the daytime festivities wind down on our third Saturday of the season. The bar will be serving up beverages and the band will be serving up the rock!
To attend, please head over to our Ticket page and purchase a ticket to the faire. Come visit us that Saturday and stay for Blaggards, or use your faire ticket to attend the Blaggards show, only.
