*****

“There’s something in our house. I hear it every night, at the same time”

New parents Jenny and Sam have recently moved into their new home. But something isn’t right.

Every night at 2:22, Jenny hears footsteps through the baby monitor, circling their daughter’s cot. Is their house haunted?

When friends join them for a housewarming dinner, late-night conversation turns to their pasts and the possibility of the supernatural.

Determined to uncover the truth, they agree to stay awake until 2:22 … and then they’ll know.

Explore fear, belief, and scepticism in this multi award-winning stage phenomenon by People’s alumnus Danny Robins. Perfect for the run up to Halloween … if you dare!
