The Haunted is a fun story-telling performance of stories from the weird world of Norfolk legends and ghosts.    "My favourite show at The Fringe!" Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2023 audience member

 

Starting in the 14th Century, real life historical figure Queen Isabella is hounded by the infamous, and possibly not-so-real Black Shuck (a fierce wolf-like creature that roams the East Anglian countryside). 

 

We move into the 19th Century to a maverick anthropologist, a mummy’s hand and a spot of revenge. 

All of this entwined with hilarious, historical facts that show that Norfolk really is the centre of the universe!

 

Finishing off down a twisted path in the Thetford marshes with a 20th Century beast, a wannabe crook called Mango and a doggy video deal.
