    Love the spooky vibes of this piece! This is the prefect play to include for a fall season festival!

    This is a fabulous ghost story with a twist! Waverly and Alex are two people who've found themselves in the same church but for very different reasons. As the audience you are invited on an emotional roller coaster as you discover more about their past and how it affects the present scene. Its a tension fuelled and emotional thriller that will keep you guessing to the point where you NEED to know what happens next! So....go and find out!

    Is it really possible to escape the past? Should we even try to escape our past if we have unresolved issues, traumatic events we are trying to work through, or a need to make amends that keeps insisting we never forget? There are so many profound ideas running through this short play, and Samantha Oty manages to make us think while still entertaining us with a suspenseful ghost story. Well done!
