Tomorrow, Friday 30 November, we have an incredibly special evening of horror planned for you.
Ray Cluley, John Costello, Joseph D’Lacey and Alison Littlewood will all be reading at our Christmas Event running from 6-9PM in The Writer’s Room at The University of Warwick. This is a free event – please e-mail Michael@ThisIsHorror.co.uk with the subject line ‘Christmas Warwick’ to reserve your place today.
There will be festive refreshments and wine available. We also encourage you to bring your own food and drinks, to get into the Christmas spirit. Speaking of Christmas spirits there will be ghostly and ghoulish Christmas tales with our usual horror twist.
The Writer’s Room is situated in Milburn House at The University of Warwick. Here is Milburn House on Google Maps.
