A spokesperson said: “M R James is acknowledged as the master of the English ghost story. He first performed his supernatural tales to friends at Christmas in King’s College, Cambridge. Now Nunkie Theatre Company have brought two of these unforgettable spinechillers back to life.

“The gripping one-man shows give theatregoers the opportunity to experience these chilling masterpieces in the manner in which they were originally enjoyed.”

Both stories will be told on October 27. Tickets cost £15 and can be booked by calling 01543 412121 or visiting www.lichfieldgarrick.com.
