Event description

Three classic ghost stories – live on stage!

Vengeful spirits, murderous revenants and gruesome promises kept from beyond the grave – every horror imaginable is conjured in this uniquely terrifying experience. Nightmares is a gothic show that will leave audiences quaking in their seats… and dying for more.

The show features three of the most spine-tingling tales ever written – The Judge’s House by Bram Stoker, The Kit-Bag by Algernon Blackwood and John Charrington’s Wedding by E Nesbit.

These pleasing terrors are brought to you by The Book of Darkness & Light, who have toured the length and breadth of the country with their unique brand of ghost story theatre for the past eight years.

Act 1 (‘The Kit-Bag’ and ‘John Charrington’s Wedding’) 50 mins approx
