SUMMARY:Ghost Stories
DESCRIPTION:Two Ghost Stories by M R James\, expertly performed by R M Lloyd Parry. \n‘… Parkins\, who very much dislikes being questioned about it\, did once describe something of it in my hearing\, and I gathered that what he chiefly remembers is a horrible\, an intensely horrible\, face of crumpled linen. What expression he read upon it he could not or would not tell\, but that the fear of it went nigh to maddening him is certain …’ \nOver a century after their first publication\, the ghost stories of M R James retain their power to terrify and amuse. \nOh\, Whistle\, and I’ll Come to You\, My Lad – a tale of nocturnal horror on the Suffolk coast – is considered by many to be author’s masterpiece. It is beautifully complemented here by The Ash Tree\, a story of witchcraft and vengeance down the generations.Performance lasts approx 100 minutes including interval. \nWARNING: CONTAINS MOMENTS OF PLEASING TERROR \n‘Lloyd Parry was utterly hypnotic\, holding the audience in thrall…’ The Orcadian \nRead an article by Robert Lloyd Parry about the original illustrations for ‘Oh\, Whistle…’ here. \nA filmed performance of “Oh\, Whistle…” and a documentary about the background to the story can be purchased here. \nR L Parry website: https://www.nunkie.co.uk/the-mr-james-project \nTuesday 28 October7.30pm\, doors open at 6.45pmPop-up-barTickets £15 adult; £10 U18; £13.50 membersSuitable for ages 13+

SUMMARY:Science at St Mary's - Dark Science for Halloween
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr Sophie James as we step into the shadows where technology meets the supernatural. \nFrom the witch hunts of early modern Europe to the rise of digital gothicism\, this special Halloween lecture traces how each new medium revives old anxieties about knowledge\, power\, and control. Moving from witchcraft and modern spiritualism to viral conspiracy theories and algorithmic rituals\, we’ll explore how digital systems of persuasion and visibility echo earlier forms of magic\, manipulation\, and moral panic. \nAre today’s algorithms the new spells? And why does technology — from viral conspiracies to online radicalisation — so often mirror our oldest superstitions? \nTogether\, we’ll consider how horror content\, online radicalisation\, and the viral spread of fear reveal a darker side of our connected world; one that thrives on attention\, emotion\, and the thrill of being afraid. \nExpect a hauntingly creative talk that blends cultural history and a touch of the macabre\, revealing the eerie ways our technologies keep summoning ghosts of the past… \nFREE Entry – no need to bookSuitable for ages 16+Thu 30 Oct 7PMDoors Open 6.30PMPop-up Bar \nNo need to book – just come along on the night!
