An evening of ghost stories and tales of horror
Telling ghost stories at Christmas was a popular tradition in Victorian Britain – and the Friends of Chadkirk are reviving this tradition. Imagine: the chapel, dimly lit – in the corner by the statue of St Chad, a storyteller. There will be gothic tales to chill the bone, along with alcoholic drinks and refreshments to warm the spirit (cash only).
Readers include ex-BBC presenter Colin Sykes and his wife Janette - plus a few of the Friends of Chadkirk.
We suggest that this event is not suitable for younger children.
This event is tickets only, but tickets are free of charge. We do ask, please, only book tickets if you intend to come and not ‘just in case’ – we have limited space and this stops others from coming and leaves the chapel looking empty.
Tickets are available now from Ticketpass.
ON THE DAY, PLEASE HELP US TO MANAGE THE EVENT
For those of you who are arriving by car, the car park for the chapel is on the left, just as you turn into Vale Road from Otterspool Road.
Please be aware that Vale Road provides access to residents’ houses both on Vale Road near the car park and further up, past the chapel, at Burymewick. Vale Road is single track for some of its distance so please show patience and respect to those who need to access their houses or park outside them.
After parking, you will need to walk to the chapel on foot. From the car park, walk down Vale Road until it becomes a single track – and then take the footpath at the side of the field until you reach either the chapel or the well.
