About this Event
THE LOST GHOSTS OF KATOOMBA LIBRARY // Saturday 2 November // 2:00pm - 2:45pm // Venue: Katoomba Library // Part of the 2024 Blue Mountains Writers' Festival
Recommended ages 7 - 14
Lovers of spooky tales and clever mysteries are invited to join author Antony Mann and Creative Director of Word Travels, Miles Merrill, to discover their inner ghostbuster. Go on a ghost hunt through Katoomba Library to see what – or whooooo – you can find, then write your own ghost story set in the Blue Mountains.
Antony Mann’s The Lost Ghosts of Lawson sees its protagonist Lewin Fowler move from the beaches of Sydney to a small town in the Blue Mountains. He gets off on the wrong foot at school, his mum signs him up for piano lessons with a creepy old instructor and he's not sure he'll ever make any new friends . . . until the ghosts of Lawson begin appearing.
