Ghosts of Dartington: IMMERSIVE THEATRE STORYTELLING AROUND OLD ST MARY'S
An immersive theatre experience combining storytelling and performance art in the shadowlands around the medieval church tower at Dartington Hall Estate.
Immerse yourself in tales of the Ghosts of Dartington and stories from the other world. Lose yourself as you are enticed down secret paths through the graveyard and around the ancient trees to enter another world.
Whispered tales and forgotten legends awake strange apparitions and ancient fears, as half glimpsed figures and alternate realities flicker and dance just beyond your comprehension. The storyteller draws you forward to unearth ghostly encounters beyond the veil, with a tasty brew of unexpected twists and turns, Halloween at Dartington is a spine-chilling glimpse of unearthly entertainment!
The Ghosts of Dartington will occur every 45 minutes with stories starting at 5pm, 5:45, 6:30, 7:15 and 8pm
Don't forget to take advantage of the option to follow your chilling visit to the underworld with a warm drink or family meal at the White Hart.
Dress for the weather and prepare for the chills of the underworld!
Spaces are limited, so book soon!
