Midwinter: A Ghost Story in Two Parts

About

Blabbermouth Storytelling presents an evening of seasonal ghost-storytelling to mark the festive period.

Join award winning archaeologist and storyteller Dan Broadbent for an atmospheric telling of 'Midwinter', an original ghost story inspired by myths and legends of the Winter Solstice and the eerie folklore of South West England's most mysterious prehistoric sites.

Told in two-parts, and across thousands of years, expect tales within tales and a wealth of characters including Edwardian archaeologists, self-styed gurus, and ancient gods, in a spellbinding supernatural journey.

The show lasts approximately 90 minutes including a short interval. Suitable for adults and older children (recommended 13+)

​Audience praise for Blabbermouth:

  • "Spellbinding... An otherworldly journey through stories, once forgotten, breathed into existence once more. Utterly captivating!"
  • "Dan has a way of transporting you into the story straightaway. I was completely transfixed on him! He manages to bring the story to life all through memory. Haunting. And highly recommended"
  • "A Yuletide delight! The audience were transported back in time with the characters and music, captivated by the voice of the storyteller. A perfect way to kick start the festive season!"
  • "Brilliantly captivating delivery of a wonderful tale. What a festive treat!"
