Fancy scaring the sh*t out of yourself this Halloween? How about a new interactive seance show taking place at one of London’s most haunting venues - The Asylum in Peckham.

Nightmares and phantom legends form the backdrop to Seance: conversations in the dark. Participants in the audience invite the spirits into the space to share their wisdom, exorcise their demons or complete their unfinished business. The only thing for sure is that anything could happen.

Driven by memories of night terrors as a boy, Christopher Howell’s seance takes a haunting look at what lures us to seances. As we flirt with the supernatural, do we seek comfort in reaching out to loved ones who have passed? Or do we crave the raw fear of a ghostly encounter?

Ages 15 and up. Not recommended for nervous dispositions.

The show was written and performed by Christopher Howell. He is a Member of The Magic Circle. He has performed around the world including at The Magic Castle in Hollywood, The Wintergarten in Berlin and the Hackney Empire in London. He is the co-creator of the magic variety act Norvil & Josephine.
