Unanimously acclaimed by the critics, Stephen Mallatratt's adaptation of Susan Hill's best-selling novel combines the power and intensity of live theatre with a cinematic quality of film noir.

It is a formula that provides audiences with an evening of unremitting drama as they are transported into a terrifying and ghostly world. Now in its 18th year, over 3 million people have lived to tell the tale of one of the most exciting, gripping and successful theatre events ever staged.
