# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Haunted Shadows: The Gothic Tales of Edith Nesbit
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 28 Apr, 2026 at 07:30 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: “Sometimes our nighttime imaginings merely hint at the real horrors…”

An expert at chilling the spine and curdling the blood, Edith Nesbit relates three of her best Gothic tales while recalling her own childhood terrors. In The Shadow, a repressed housekeeper encounters an abominable entity, while in The Pavilion the shade of a long-dead necromancer envelops a social gathering. Finally, a deranged young woman harbours a deadly secret in a rediscovered story called A Strange Experience.

Following the success of The Masks of Aphra Behn, Claire Louise Amias returns with this gripping insight into the darker side of Edith Nesbit, author of The Railway Children. Renowned horror expert Jonathan Rigby directs this chilling one-woman show.

Claire has worked extensively on stage and screen, including No 1 tours, Paul Taylor-Mills rep seasons, Southwark Playhouse, plus the feature films Borley Rectory and Provoked.
