Join Edwyrdian Tales for an evening of haunting dark delights set during Christmastide

About

A live storytelling one-man show bringing the haunting ghost stories of Christmas time to life…

Join Edwyrdian Tales next to the Christmas tree for three stories of the season from three authors – H.R. Wakefield, Algernon Blackwood and an original tale from the storyteller.

In Lucky’s Grove a family discover the dangers of bringing in the wrong Christmas tree for their celebrations. The twinkling fairy lights cannot illuminate the very real darkness they have let loose into their home. In The Wendigo a lonely hunting party in far flung pine forests hear the terrible call of the wild. Something walks amongst the towering trees, and upon the wind itself. And in The Elder Son a father tries to carve the perfect Christmas gift from a broken tree. A gift he bitterly regrets as soon as it is made.

Bone chilling tales to conjure the spirits of Christmas…

This one man performance is directed (and haunted) by Matthew Wood.
