Night Terrors by Gerard Logan - Wednesday October 12

Calling all Halloween fans and those who gladly welcome a good scare, The Burnavon has the perfect night for you. Night Terrors is a spine-tingling evening featuring three tales of the supernatural from E.F Benson's brilliant collection of ghost stories.

With masterful storytelling from the award-winning actor Gerard Logan, Night Terrors will transport you to a darker, more sinister world of the unexpected and the unexplainable.

The three stories (The DanceIn The Tube and The Confession of Charles Linkworth), are dramatic, haunting and hugely memorable.

“Logan is astounding....He takes a strong script and flies it to the stars” - Edinburgh Festival 2016 Review – 5 STARS

“Watching Logan work is like being privy to a wonder of nature and remains with you ... A true masterpiece of solo performance” - The Edinburgh Guide - Edinburgh Festival 2015 – 5 STARS
