After thrilling audiences worldwide with sell-out productions and a critically acclaimed film, Ghost Stories is back for its first full UK tour. Simon Friend Entertainment proudly presents this Olivier Award-nominated supernatural experience—now more terrifying than ever.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “An immaculately crafted evening of entertainment.” – Time Out
Last seen in the UK in 2019, Ghost Stories played a successful run at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith, before transferring to the West End’s Ambassador’s Theatre. A 2020 UK tour was cut short by the pandemic, but now, the show returns to take audiences on a gripping, nerve-shredding ride.
The cast features Dan Tetsell (Rivals, Disney+) as Professor Goodman, David Cardy (Birds of a Feather, ITV) as Tony Matthews, Clive Mantle (Casualty, BBC) as Mike Priddle, Eddie Loodmer-Elliott (Modi: Three Days on the Wing of Madness) as Simon Rifkind, with Lloyd McDonagh as The Others, Lucas Albion in the ensemble, and Simon Bass as understudy.
⚠️ WARNING
This show is not for the faint-hearted. With moments of extreme tension and shock, Ghost Stories is strictly recommended for ages 15+. If you have a nervous disposition, proceed with caution.
The Story
Professor Goodman, a die-hard sceptic on a mission to debunk the paranormal, investigates three disturbing cases—a night-watchman’s eerie encounter, a teenage boy’s terrifying experience, and a businessman awaiting his first child. As he delves deeper, Goodman finds himself dangerously close to the limits of rationality, with explanations slipping through his fingers.
A Global Phenomenon
With its chilling twists and masterful storytelling, Ghost Stories has captivated audiences in the West End and beyond. A Sunday Times review called it “genuinely scary fun”, while Metro admitted: “I had to sleep with the lights on.”
The big question is—are you brave enough to book?
A Message from Jeremy Dyson & Andy Nyman
“We are beyond excited that Ghost Stories will be scaring the hell out of audiences around the country on its first-ever full UK tour. It’s been 15 years since we first brought the screams, laughs, jumps, and killer twists to the stage, and we can’t wait to do it again. Are you brave enough?”
In 2018, Ghost Stories hit the big screen with a film adaptation starring Andy Nyman, Martin Freeman, Alex Lawther, and Paul Whitehouse. Hailed as a "modern horror classic", it was ranked #16 on Empire magazine’s list of ‘The Greatest 25 Horror Films Ever Made’.
