DEEPEST FEARS:  GHOST STORIES

Two classic tales of terror – live on stage!

Horrifying spectres, restless souls and evil secrets that refuse to stay buried are all brought to life in this spine-chilling show. Join the mysterious Storyteller for two blood-curdling ghost stories, full of chills and thrills. An unmissable evening by one of the country’s most captivating ghost story performers — dare you face your deepest fears?

Includes the classic tales of terror ‘The Room in the Tower’ by E.F. Benson and ‘The Captain of the Polestar’ by Arthur Conan Doyle.

The Book of Darkness & Light’s previous work includes a number of original plays, including SHIVERS (“A must-see production” – Northern Soul) and UPON THE STAIR (“Everyone needs to see this show.” – Reviews Hub). Their production of A CHRISTMAS CAROL (“A hauntingly wonderful retelling of a classic tale” – Our Theatre Voice) has been produced both nationally and internationally.
