The Gothic Gathering: The Signalman
25 April 2025 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
After bringing his hit show ‘The Mystery of Dracula’ to the festival last year, David Alnwick is back at the Gothic Gathering with Charles Dickens’ classic ghost story… THE SIGNALMAN.
A lone traveller befriends a railway signalman with a terrifying tale to tell.
David Alnwick is an actor, writer, and magician, and the first half of the show will be a live performance demonstration of Victorian Spiritualism, followed by a classic Dickensian style performance of The Signalman.
Expect an evening of ghosts, illusions, and chilling tales.
