The Master Ghost Hunter

Fancy something a little more chilling?
Step into the strange world of Elliott O’Donnell, the Victorian-era ghost hunter who spent decades travelling the world in search of supernatural encounters.
In The Master Ghost Hunter, Adam Wood delves into O’Donnell’s casebook, bringing some of his most terrifying stories to life. Expect tales of phantoms, poltergeists, spirits and unexplained encounters as the evening explores the stories collected by one of the world’s best-known ghost hunters.

Make a night of it at The Albany!
Halloween in Coventry doesn’t have to mean another night in front of a horror film.
