Jeanette Winterson: Ghost Stories

An evening of spooks and thrills exploring modern ghost stories, from internet ghouls to AI imprints.

Jeanette Winterson spooks and thrills with an evening of modern ghost stories.

How have ghosts adapted in a digital age? That’s the question presented by ‘Night Side of the River’, Jeanette Winterson’s new collection of short stories and experimental pieces based on her real-life encounters with the occult.

Join Jeanette for a supernatural evening of readings and reflection as she invites us to imagine what our modern ghosts might look like. Could they haunt your phone? If you enjoyed a friendship with someone you have never met via the metaverse, how would you know if they were dead? And is it wise for so many of us to choose to live alone these days?

Feel the back of your neck tingle as we celebrate the most spine-chilling form of storytelling.
