Date: Friday 13 December, 2024

Time: 7:30 PM to 10:00 PM

There has been a long tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas; as evenings get darker the long nights would be filled with stories around the fire or by candlelight of the strange things lurking in the darkness outside. We recreate this tradition in the atmospheric surrounding for an evening of candlelit tales of the unexpected.

As you sit surround by history, dimly lit by flickering light you will be immersed in a theatrical experience as dark stories unfold all around you.

Act One is a seated performance of Ghost Stories. Act Two may involve some exploration.
