Get into the spirit of Halloween
The Wreckers is a chilling new play by BAFTA-nominated writer Tom Needham, performed live on stage at Burton Constable Hall on the eve of Halloween.
A chilling Tale
Two friends escape to an idyllic cottage on a remote peninsula, hoping for a much-needed break. But when the tide cuts them off from the mainland, their peaceful retreat begins to unravel.
They discover that the cottage itself was built from the hull of a wrecked ship – a vessel deliberately lured onto the rocks more than 150 years ago by wreckers who murdered its crew and stole its cargo.
But the events of that terrible day have left more than wreckage behind.
The peninsula is haunted by the ghost of a child who drowned that day. For more than a century and a half, she has been waiting for her revenge.
Now, finally, the time has come.
