This is a live stage show in which horror author Nick Steen's imagination bursts out of his brain and threatens to destroy the entirety of Stalkford. It features a sinister Black Steeple, eerie lights in the sky that are not a Catherine wheel, and a giant skeleton with a moustache. The show is the work of Garth Marenghi, self-described Horror Fiction's Grand Frightener and author of the Sunday Times-bestselling Garth Marenghi's TerrorTome and Garth Marenghi's Incarcerat. It offers three freshly rancid tales from This Bursted Earth, possibly the grand finale of a three-book trilogy.
