The award-winning ThickSkin return to London following a sold-out tour with this chilling new play from Bruntwood Prize-winner Tim Foley.
When an out-of-work actor accepts a well-paid job playing a ghost at a remote countryside manor, he expects nothing more than a few easy scares for curious visitors. 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 will draw you into a world of creeping dread, unexpected twists and dark humour. Inventive staging, immersive sound and bold visual effects combine to create this edge-of-your-seat theatrical experience.
Unsettling, darkly comic and full of surprises, the stage is set… for terror!
