The Crick Crack Club presents: Folk Horror Night with Daniel Morden and Laura Sampson
Live from the Woodshed Theatre at The Story Museum in Oxford, the Crick Crack Club presents Fairytales for Grown-ups
Heed the call of the weird and gather round for a night where ancient folklore meets modern fear. Dive into the eerie, the unsettling, and the spine-tingling world of Folk Horror stories. Lonely forests, foolhardy pacts, shapeshifters, unquiet graves, and ominous prophecies - the folk and fairytales of our ancestors are bound with the traces of old superstition, twisted ritual, cult, curses and archaic customs. These stories tap into forgotten fears that never stay buried - leaving you questioning what’s lurking just beyond the edge of your reality. It’s not about whether something’s out there, it’s about when it’s going to find you. Are you ready to face the darkness? Don't expect happily ever after!
