Ghost Stories at the Leper Chapel

November 11 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm

£15.87

Casting the Runes

Intimate theatre production of two ghost stories performed by Robert Lloyd Parry in the atmospheric Leper Chapel.

In Casting the Runes we meet the unforgettable ‘Abbot of Lufford’, Mr Karswell – magic lanternist, historian of the occult, and scourge of the academic establishment. The story is perhaps best known for being the source for the classic 1950s horror film ‘Night of the Demon.’ It is partnered here by one of M R James’s most neglected masterpieces: The Residence at Whitminster in which a dark shadow is cast over the precinct of a peaceful English church…

“Remarkable. Lloyd Parry is a natural storyteller, well able to hold, amuse and frighten his audience.” – The Stage

Tickets £15.87 in advance from here

Please note, there is no car parking at the Chapel itself, but car parking is available on nearby streets. There will not be any toilets available at the Chapel, the nearest public toilet is 300 metres. There is a large step into the Chapel.
