Come face-to-face with terror…

One lamp-lit storyteller, two ghostly tales and nothing else but the infinite horrors
of the surrounding darkness.

To celebrate a decade of making ghost story theatre, The Book of Darkness & Light present two of their most terrifying tales from the past ten years in this
intimate and spellbinding solo show.

In The Bonehouse, historian Archie Witt takes a research trip to investigate the
fabled roundhouse lock-up in Abbot’s Knock, a village marred by witch trials, a
wicked 17th-century magistrate and an ancient evil that may haunt the place still.

In A Horror in Porcelain, eccentric millionaire Delaney acquires a notorious
antique doll for his collection… only to stumble upon a haunting history that will
catch up with him in the most horrifying way imaginable.

Brought to life by master of the macabre Adam Z. Robinson, Darkness & Light is
a uniquely enthralling show that will have you on the edge of your seat
throughout… and haunt you long after the final words are spoken. Join us, if you
dare, for this spine-chilling storytelling experience.

“…pure spine-chilling escapism brimming with edge-of-your-seat tension.” —
The Indiependent on Haunted

★★★★★ “A must-see production.”
— Northern Soul on Shivers

“Robinson’s delivery is captivating… he is an exceptional storyteller.”

    It was a Fabulous Performance I enjoyed it all especially the Quiz on best Evil Laugh, that I upstaged the Actor. I knew most of the songs but a few of my Chums didn't know some of the more modern ones. I would say a few more older musical songs as well as the newer ones. The Kings song at the end was a great way to finish with a sing along with the audience.
