Gave Cross - After Supper Ghost Stories

“It always is Christmas Eve, in a Ghost Story…”
The tradition of gathering together to tell ghost stories in the cold and dark of winter surely stretches back far further to when we first imagined what lurks in the dark corners of the firelight? The Victorians, however, turned this parlour and party entertainment into an institution and expectation.
First published in 1891, Jerome K. Jerome, famed author of Three Men in a Boat, perfectly parodies this spooky and popular amusement with these comic horror stories. A portmanteau of ghostly tales, told by an unreliable narrator and tied together with nonsense, noise and whiskey-punch…
A Frosty Chiller or a Winter Warmer? Storyteller Gav Cross brings this robust reading of a Victorian gem to life in his typically bombastic way. Suitable for all.
“Gav’s After Supper Ghost Stories was a masterclass in storytelling and audience control cleverly masquerading as total drunker nonsense. By the end of the night, even the most restless meme-spewing teen in attendance sat totally captivated by his raucous and suspenseful retelling of these classic tales. We can’t wait to welcome him back to The Pound!” (Pound Arts.)
“Excellent story told in a spellbinding way.”
“Very charming and genuinely fun!”
