Our Favourite Spooky Shows
The Woman In Black
Sometimes what you don't see is far scarier than what you do, and you certainly don't need buckets of blood to make an audience scream - as proved by The Woman in Black, London's legendary ghost story, which ran on the West End for more than 30 years!
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Hear us out...but how can you ever forget the dementors once you've seen them in the flesh? Gliding through the auditorium in their tattered robes, these soul-sucking creatures will make you want to eat chocolate by the bucketload, and have the bravest Potterheads wanting to scream lumos, lumos!
Carrie
In honour of the new Amazon Prime hit series, Stephen King's high-school horror deserves a mention. The original musical premiered at Stratford-upon-Avon's Royal Shakespeare Theatre in 1988, telling the story of a bullied teenager whose telekinetic powers unleash bloody revenge at the school prom. With a score by Michael Gore and Dean Pitchford and a famously ambitious production featuring elaborate effects, Carrie became one of Broadway's most notorious musical flops before finding a devoted cult following.
The Crucible
First staged on Broadway in 1953, Arthur Miller's The Crucible is another production that deserves a place on any spooky-season watchlist, and is a fiery example of how real horror lies in mass hysteria and loss of control. Inspired by the Salem witch trials of 1692, the play follows a Massachusetts community consumed by accusations of witchcraft.
