A couple from the city rents an old farmhouse in the country. Their dream of quiet becomes a nightmare when they find out about a murder in the house and the vengeful ghost that is reported to stalk the night. Laugh out loud funny and scream out loud scary. Not recommended for children (or the faint of heart!) You don't want to miss this spook-tacular show! By Peter Colley

 

Enjoy your thrills with a side of chill, in the air conditioned comfort of Mount Tabor Playhouse located at 2179C, County Road 17, Milford, ON. www.festivalplayers.ca
