- **Event Description**: Three ghost stories by M R James

Performed by R M Lloyd Parry

"His eyes were deep-sunk. And over them, from the brows to the cheek-bone, hung cobwebs. Thick, grey cobwebs..."

Three tales of the restless dead, by the master of the English ghost story.

In Rats a reading holiday in a quiet coastal inn is thrown into confusion by a horribly thin Something in the neighbouring room. In An Evening's Entertainment a blackberry thicket on a country lane conceals the site of a blasphemous and bloody ritual. And in The Tractate Middoth the bookstacks of a University Library are host to an unnaturally strong smell of dust...

There are no safe spaces in the world of M R James.

Old Woollen favourite Robert Lloyd Parry who bears a striking physical resemblance to James. In 2014 Lloyd Parry appeared as the author in Mark Gatiss's BBC2 Documentary 'M R James: Ghost Writer.' His candlelit performances have been covered by The New Yorker, The Fortean Times, The Spectator, The Times, The Sunday Times, The Washington Post, The Daily Mail, The Guardian and The Morning Star. 

"Lloyd Parry's mastery of the role... is itself an act of possession." The New Yorker

"The perfect mix of humour, warmth, apprehension and profound unease. A most pleasing terror..."   The Sunday Times
