The Enfield Haunting

Why see The Enfield Haunting?

Based on true events

Catherine Tate and David Threlfall make their West End returns in this chilling new play from Paul Unwin. Detailing the supernatural events that overtook a London family in the late 70s, Tate plays single mum Peggy Hodgson as she attempts to save her children during one of the most mindbending and terrifying poltergeist visitations the country has ever seen. As night falls, Thelfall joins the petrified family as Maurice Grosse, the ghost hunter tasked with putting a stop to the ghostly antics.

Created by Unwin, after conversations with a famed poltergeist expert and based on accounts of eyewitnesses, this absolutely terrifying tale is set to scare audiences silly from November 2023!

Excellent production, amazing cast! We loved it!

Beautifully made show, as someone whose researched extensively into the history and the investigation it’s easy to begin looking at what happened as a ‘case’ or an elaborate story as in the movie depictions but can forget that this experience truly happened to a simple family living in London in the times they did. It must have been devastating for the investigator and imagine the horror witnessing these things happening to your child to your family. The traumas the children experienced. The newspapers all calling you liars or creating their own takes of ‘truth’. A single mother being gossiped about and chastised in her community. This play brought me back to the reality of the situation and the cast was phenomenal in portraying their parts fears and coping mechanisms. The pain of having strangers in your home but the absolute fear of what’s happening it was all so well done. I had front row seats which I wish I hadn’t done as missed the top floor scenes but even still amazing show! ... Read more

Great performance

All the actors were exceptional, bringing humour and great performances throughout. Overall, I would recommend you see this play and make your own judgement and not listen to some of the reviews out there. ... Read more
