The Haunting
Little Earthquake's ghostly theatrical experience
For the first time,
Little Earthquake is leaving the safe confines of the theatre and will
take you into the dark, enveloping shadows of England's reputedly haunted
halls, houses and hotels.
Have you ever wondered
what it was like to attend a Victorian spirit séance? During October
2009, three heritage properties will host an unforgettable theatrical
event, an evening quite unlike anything you will ever have experienced
before.
Our wealthy society
hostess will receive you for drinks before she leads you through to
the séance chamber to meet a celebrated medium of the age. But who will
make their presence felt? Is that pull on your sleeve the ghostly hand
of a usurped monarch or a phantom pick-pocket? And what is that strange
sound you can hear? The laughter of a little girl in the King's Bedroom?
The weeping of a young woman starving to death in the tower? Or the
chatter of spectral hotel guests enjoying a sumptuous celebration dinner?
Experience events
as they unfold as a member of the gathering's outer circle. Or perhaps
you will be invited by the medium to join him at the séance table? Book
now to make sure you don't miss this fascinating exploration of these
buildings' secret histories.
