Why let death get in the way of a good conversation? Join us on a dark October evening at London’s Cemetery of All Souls, Kensal Green for a journey into the unknown with a reconstruction of a Victorian séance.
The rapid scientific progress that took place in Victorian times had an eerie parallel in that society’s popular fascination with spiritualism. If science could allow communication with distant America via the newly-laid transatlantic cable, couldn’t it also provide the means for us to speak to the dead? Interest in ghosts, levitation, table-tapping, automatic writing, shadow photography and telepathy flourished; seances were held at dinner parties and clairvoyants and mediums became international celebrities.
Our medium Christopher Howell has had an interest in the
paranormal and psychic phenomena from a young age, and is
fascinated by mystery. He believes there is a logical explanation
for - almost - everything, but is constantly hoping to be
proved wrong.
A cross between an interactive séance and a psychological
theatre experience., this evening will feature stories of
ghosts and nightmares as well as experiments designed to invite the
spirits to come out and play.
Both skeptics and believers are welcome to join us, but leave your prejudices at the door and prepare to join hands and to have your mind altered.
Tickets £20 including a Victorian Punch and a 20% donation to the Friends of Kensal Green Cemetery.
