The Ghost Train

by Arnold Ridley

Directed by Dennis Yardley

Arnold Ridley’s classic comedy-thriller, The Ghost Train, was first produced in 1925 and has been a firm favourite with professional and non-professional theatre companies ever since.

Six passengers find themselves stranded late at night in the waiting-room of an isolated Cornish railway station. Ignoring the ghostly tales and dire warnings of the stationmaster, they decide to stay where they are until morning – with terrifying consequences.

Finally, all is revealed and the details of a fiendish plot are laid bare.
