Description:
Join us for a creepy and festive evening at enchanting The Peoples' Hall.
Welcome to A Christmas Ghost Story & Lecture at The Peoples' Hall! Join us for a spine-tingling evening filled with eerie tales and fascinating insights. Immerse yourself in the holiday spirit with a unique twist as we explore the supernatural side of Christmas.
From ghost hunting to sleigh riding on vintage children’s television. Expect a Box of Delights and fireside literature, guided by Matthew, Blue & the Spirit of Christmas Past. The lecture is part talk / part ramble, charting how we’ve all been wonderfully indoctrinated into spooky Christmases from screens and books gone by.
We will then be treated to the best of the season: a Christmas Ghost Story recited by special guest Paul Paschal.
This in-person event will take place at The People's Hall, an important historic venue that is usually closed to the public and is the perfect site for a night of wonder and intrigue. Get ready for a memorable experience that will leave you both entertained and enlightened. Don't miss out on this one-of-a-kind event!
