The Production

A truly terrifying theatrical experience created by The League of Gentlemen’s Jeremy Dyson, and Andy Nyman. Ghost Stories mixes the very best of theatre with the buzz of a thrill-ride, delivering something truly unique.

When Professor Goodman, arch-sceptic out to debunk the paranormal, embarks on an investigation of three apparent hauntings – as recounted by a night-watchman, a teenage boy, and a businessman awaiting his first child – Goodman finds himself at the outer limits of rationality, and fast running out of explanations.

After exhilarating audiences for two years in the West End and across the world with record breaking, sell-out productions and a smash hit film, Ghost Stories is “Genuine scary fun” (Sunday Times), a worldwide phenomenon more spine-tingling and fantastically terrifying than ever.
