"Fearsome theatrical thrills abound in this spook-tacular account of real-life investigations into ghostly going-ons in British theatres."
The first in a new series of illustrated narrative non-fiction themed around paranormal investigations undertaken by Yvette Fielding — doyenne of ghostly detection — Most Haunted Theatres uncovers all manner of harrowing happenings in nine British theatres, from iconic London stages, to the haunted halls of end-of-pier playhouses.
Each chapter kicks off with a run-down of the theatre’s history and ghostly happenings. Then follows an account of the author’s investigation of each theatre’s paranormal activity, undertaken with support from her Most Haunted team.
From manic clowns and the souls of sailors, to faceless policemen and cheeky stagehands, Most Haunted Theatres serves a thrilling, chilling smorgasbord of unexplained activity backstage, on the boards, under the boards, and in darkened dressing rooms — prepare for a petrifying ride of a read!
