It Was A Dark & Stormy Night - A Mystery Comedy Spoof by Tim Kelly

Monday 7th July to Saturday 12th July 2008

Directed by Eddie Hynes

A shameless spoof loaded with laughs and thrills. The creepy, haunted Ye Olde Wayside Inn oozes New England Gothic atmosphere and never has guests. Several intruders from the outside world are forced to seek shelter.
When the wind howls and the lights flicker, the chilling time begins.
