It Walks Around The House At Night

Recommended Age Guide 14+

Unsettling, darkly comic and full of surprises, the stage is set… for terror.

When an out-of-work actor takes a job playing a ghost at an old countryside manor, he expects nothing more than a few cheap scares. But as night after night unfolds, the role begins to blur with reality — and something far more sinister starts to emerge.

Part ghost story, part psychological thriller, It Walks Around The House At Night draws audiences into a world of creeping dread, unexpected twists and dark humour. A haunted house story for a new era, brought to life through inventive staging, immersive sound and bold visual effects.

ThickSkin, one of the UK’s most exciting touring companies, joins forces with award-winning playwright, Tim Foley to create this thrilling production.

Cast: Joe George Naylor, Oliver Baines, featuring the voice of Paul Hilton.
