Glasgow to get 'terrifying' new Ghosthunter interactive event with thrills and scares

A 'terrifying' new event is coming to Glasgow, promising a "chilling" and "unforgettable" live horror experience.

Created by leading production company Visible Fictions, Ghosthunter is described as a thrilling interactive production designed for older teens and young adults (16 and over) that's part immersive theatre and part expansive escape room.

The firm says the show combines new technology and live horror and takes inspiration from paranormal programmes like Ghostwatch and Most Haunted, with audiences are invited to step into a detailed recreation of an old townhouse.

There they will assist with the investigation, splitting off into groups as they explore the terrifying space solving clues, learning secrets, and seeking out the spirits that might still lurk within the walls.

A spokesperson for the firm said: "After Edward’s death, strange things have been reported in his abandoned house. Unexplained noises, visitations, and even attacks by a terrifying presence…

"Now a team of paranormal researchers are entering the house to track down who, or what, might be responsible. Armed with the latest technology, they’re ready to solve the mystery of what Edward might have left behind. Dare you step inside and join the hunt?"

Ghosthunter will occur at the Silver Cloud Studio in Glasgow, a 5000-square foot rehearsal space run by Scottish Opera. The show will premiere for a three-week run from 30 May 2023. Tickets will be available to book from April 4 at visiblefictions.co.uk, including an option for transport to and from the production.

Artistic Director of Visible Fictions, Dougie Irvine, said: “We are so excited to present this brave theatrical experience, made especially for upper teens. Ghosthunter plays out in a purpose-built set on an epic scale.

Participants will have the ground floor of a house to explore, but they won’t be alone. There are spirts at play. Immersive, interactive and chilling, Ghosthunter will be an unforgettable event. For Visible Fictions, fusing theatre arts, new technologies and gaming together has been a thrilling process and we can’t wait share it with audiences this Summer.”

Ghosthunter Glasgow:

When: May 30 - June 17 2023
