Spring Terrors (2021)
An online storytelling and interactive event of folk horrors
Saturday 3 April from 6pm
THIS EVENT HAS TAKEN PLACE
Uncanny Collective invite you to an evening of online storytelling and interactive performance. Join us during the Easter weekend, along with a host of special guests, as we unearth folk horrors and tales of burial, unspeakable deities and the restless undead.
The last year has been extremely tough for us all, so we have implemented a flexible ticket price for this event. You can purchase a ticket at three different prices (£5/£10/£20) and they will all give you access to the full schedule of performances on the evening.
This event will take place online on Zoom and you will receive your event link via email, one hour before the performances start.
