Being Human Festival: A Hollantide Phantasmagoria
A mix of Gothic stories, mediaeval music, and special effects.
Hollantide is the English season of eeriness and mystery, superstition and the supernatural. Of old, it was a significant English festival, and so we are inviting you to revive some Hollantide traditions with us. Come and celebrate this ghostly time of the year with local band Woodwose and their friends.
