Compared to the band's previous tours, the show was stripped back and contained fewer theatrics. The stage set would typically be decorated to resemble a church, with two large stained glass window panels placed on either side of the stage, while numerous stage props would be emblazoned with the Cross of Lorraine. During performances of "Personal Jesus" or "Antichrist Superstar", a white pulpit would be introduced, from where Manson would burn a book of scripture. For performances of "Killing Strangers", Manson would brandish a knife-shaped microphone, which he would use to repeatedly stab a tambourine. For encores, a falling ash effect was used on stage, similar to the effect used during the Rock Is Dead Tour in 1998. Following the November 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris and the cancellation of the band's subsequent performance at Le Zénith, the stage was illuminated with the French tricolor for the remainder of the tour.
