About
A spine-tingling stage play from an award-winning playwright - a haunted house story for our times.
When an out-of-work actor takes a job playing a ghost at an old country manor, he expects a few cheap scares but soon uncovers something far more frightening.
Filled with haunting tricks, chilling twists and a generous dose of dark humour, Tim Foley's play It Walks Around The House At Night was directed by Neil Bettles in a production by ThickSkin, which toured the UK in 2026.
