A new, original story from the acclaimed ghost storytelling experience, bridging the gap between page and stage.
Mary Volk has been left a gift by her Uncle, the ventriloquist Fredrick Sale. A seemingly innocuous trunk filled with his theatre costumes. But the trunk isn’t all that it seems. Why is it smaller on the inside than the out?
With numerous sold out shows under their belt including acclaimed performances at the UK Ghost Story Festival and London Month of the Dead and a growing reputation for creating a unique sense of dread in their audiences, Weeping Bank returns to Leicester Guildhall this November to present 'Pock'. Written and narrated by The Librarian and brought to life with atmospheric lighting and a haunting soundscape, this unsettling tale is not to be missed.
Weeping Bank bridges a gap between Audible and Theatre, creating a fresh hinterland for horror aficionados to explore. But be warned - you may find the shadows a little darker afterwards.

‘A masterclass in the art of the modern ghost story.’ Writer & Journalist, Bronte Schiltz

‘Well-written and flawlessly delivered with thespian-level gravitas.’ Director & Writer, Emma Dark

Warning - Weeping Bank readings contain moments of heightened tension. The reading is unsuitable for children or the faint of heart.
