FROM THE TEAM BEHIND THE SELL-OUT SHOW UNCANNY: I KNOW WHAT I SAW

UNCANNY: FEAR OF THE DARK

Are you scared of the dark? Danny Robins is back with a brand-new live show that investigates the most spine-tingling range of Uncanny stories yet, as the award-winning BBC paranormal podcast and TV series comes to thrilling, ghostly life on stage!

Chilling, intriguing and sometimes moving, prepare to investigate a collection of real-life potentially paranormal mysteries, as Danny tries to get to the heart of why we, as humans, continue to have a fear of the dark. Is it superstition? A remnant of our days as cavepeople huddled round a campfire? Or is there really something lurking out there in the darkness?

Danny will be joined by experts Dr Ciarán O’Keeffe and Evelyn Hollow to examine ghostly apparitions, UFO sightings, a haunted nursery, strange creatures on lonely country lanes, and bizarre poltergeist activity in seemingly normal houses.

This is NOT an ordinary podcast show. This is story-telling and paranormal investigation at its peak. Using a unique backdrop of sound, video projection and theatrical magic, Danny will bring these stories vividly to life with the help of Ciarán and Evelyn, plus input from you the audience, as you get the chance to ask your questions and share your own experiences.

As always, whether you are #TeamSceptic, #TeamBeliever or somewhere in between, everyone is welcome.

So… do you dare to enter the darkness?
