Our House is Haunted Charlotte Murray and Ankita Raturi

About This Show

Our House is Haunted is a devised, Cubist exploration of hauntings, inspired by compelling ghost stories and theories from around the world. During a slumber party, a group of friends play storyteller, play ghost hunter, play music, play skeptic, play believer, and invite the audience to believe in something, or believe in something else, or maybe believe in nothing. Belief is complicated, okay? By turns comical and spooky, skeptical and earnest, Our House is Haunted attempts to unpack the nature of fear and the power of belief.
