Shock Horror: A Ghost Story

A nightmare is about to break free…

Herbert grew up in the Metropol. The eerie old cinema was his playground and prison – but what lurked in the Metropol’s darkness?

Now Herbert’s back, searching for answers to long-buried questions. But for him and you, the real horror has only just begun…

Inspired by classic theatre ghost stories and cinema’s greatest frights, Shock Horror is full of shivers, shrieks and shocking revelations. Take a chilling journey into an unravelling, haunted past.

Poetry Reading and Q&A with Rob Miles and Kath McKay

Both Kath and Rob are teachers and will also be keen (indeed nosey) about attendees sharing their own experiences of reading and writing poetry, so there will be a chance for questions from the floor too.
