Location: Peacock Theatre

'An immaculately crafted evening of entertainment' - *Time Out*
A truly terrifying theatrical experience created by The League of Gentlemen’s **Jeremy Dyson**, and **Andy Nyman**, co-creator and director of **Derren Brown**’s television and stage shows. *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 three years in the West End and across the world with record
breaking, sell-out productions and a smash hit film, Ghost Stories is back in London for a strictly limited, 6-week Halloween season run.
Hailed by *Daily Express* as a ‘truly terrifying theatrical experience’, Ghost Stories is a worldwide phenomenon more spine-tingling and exhilaratingly haunting than ever.
