An immersive
supernatural experience
David Ladderman and Lizzie Tollemache present strange and eerie ghost stories from the gold rush, digging up the unpleasant bits of our past to thrill, chill and delight their audiences.
As travelling carnies they've developed an obsession with the occult, exposing and explaining the paranormal.
But lately their shows have been disrupted by strange occurrences.
Audience members are experiencing phenomena that can't be explained. They are starting to believe that something has followed them back from the goldfields.
What if we are not alone in the theatre tonight?
Based on real life accounts of early New Zealand hauntings, this spine-chilling show will make you question every shadow and sleep with the lights on. Perfect for fans of mysteries, thrillers and films such as The Conjuring, The Others and The Woman in Black.
A show to make you gasp, laugh... and then scream.
