Greetings, traveller. I’m Garth Marenghi, horror novelist, flick director and star of the silver scream (namely as Dr Rick Dagless in my groundbreaking televisionary masterpiece, Darkplace.)

Join me this October as I celebrate publication of the third novel in my bestselling TerrorTome trilogy, This Bursted Earth with an especially curated season (by yours truly) of horror films which have influenced (and in many cases stolen from) my own creative juices.

We conclude the season on 29th October, we present John Carpenter’s In the Mouth of Madness, which some say influenced (but which I say borrowed heavily from) my own tales of a horror author menaced by his own fiction.

When horror novelist Sutter Cane (Jürgen Prochnow) goes missing, insurance investigator John Trent (Sam Neill) scrutinizes the claim made by his publisher, Jackson Harglow (Charlton Heston), and endeavors to retrieve a yet-to-be-released manuscript and ascertain the writer's whereabouts. Accompanied by the novelist's editor, Linda Styles (Julie Carmen), and disturbed by nightmares from reading Cane's other novels, Trent makes an eerie nighttime trek to a supernatural town in New Hampshire.

Please Note: This performance will feature a PRE-RECORDED VIDEO INTRO from Garth Marenghi.
