'Tis the Season to be Ghostly

A Weirdosphere Celebration of the Winter Solstice

Hosted by Phil Ford and J.F. Martel
Live music by Pierre-Yves Martel

Engage in an evening of exploration and storytelling focusing on an aspect of the holidays that is largely forgotten today: the Christmas ghost story. The winter solstice and the weird are old friends, of course, and while it is true that the holiday season has long been associated with light, it is a very particular light that it celebrates—the kind that persists in the longest night, the kind that glows more than it shines. What better vehicle for exploring this interplay of light and darkness than the ghost story?

For this exclusive live event, JF and Phil will be joined by Weird Studies resident composer Pierre-Yves Martel.
