The UK Ghost Story Festival runs for the second team over the weekend of 26th-28th November in Derby, across the QUAD and Museum of Making venues. With 28 events taking place across three days, and a wide range of panels, readings, workshops, talks, interviews and more, this weekend is a must-attend for fans of the ghost story. Among the headline speakers for the event are Anita Frank (The Lost Ones), Peter Laws (The Frighteners). Caroline Lea (The Glass Woman), Neil Spring (The Haunted Shore) and an MR James performance from Don’t Go Into the Cellar Theatre, tailor-made for fans of supernatural fiction. There will be workshops exploring topics like developing a twist, creating ghosts, how to make your writing flow and many more, offering insight and inspiration for writers in the form. The event kicks off at 12:00pm on Friday 26th November and draws to a close around 3pm on Sunday 28th November, and there are tickets available for individual events as well as weekend passes – offering your choice of activity – for £60.
