The haunting begins on All Souls’ Day at the Gryphon Theatre, where The Woman in Black will make its ghostly, ghastly appearance to thrill and chill all who dare to behold this grim and terrifying tale.
One dark night a man with a sorrowful past hires an actor to help him tell a tale that has long haunted him. Several years earlier, on visiting the house of a deceased elderly recluse, he caught sight of the Woman in Black – a spectre that terrified the people of the village nearby. It was said that anyone who saw her suffered a tragedy. As the two rehearse the man’s story, it comes alive, in all its terrifying aspects.
The story of The Woman in Black was written by Dame Susan Hill and adapted for the stage by Stephen Mallatratt. It opened in 1989 at The Fortune Theatre in London’s West End and never closed, making it now the second-longest running play on the West End. In 2012 it was made into a film starring Daniel Radcliffe and became the highest grossing British horror film in 20 years. The Woman in Black is the ultimate must-see ghost story.
