Haunted Shadows: The Gothic Tales of Edith Nesbit - Saturday performance

06 Dec 2025 - 2:30 PM to 3:30 PMRochester Library
Event

An expert at chilling the spine and curdling the blood, Edith Nesbit relates two of her best Gothic tales while recalling her own childhood terrors. In The Shadow, a repressed housekeeper encounters an abominable entity, and in A Strange Experience a deranged young woman harbours a deadly secret in this rediscovered story.

 

Following the success of The Masks of Aphra Behn, Claire Louise Amias returns with this gripping insight into the darker side of Edith Nesbit, author of The Railway Children. Renowned horror expert Jonathan Rigby directs this chilling one-woman show. The show is on a national tour and has been especially adapted for library performances in Rochester in a condensed format.
