A chilling tale from the creator of Dracula is set to be read in Worcester.

Bram Stoker's 'The Judge's House' will be read at Greyfriars House and Garden on Friday (November 1).

The 'creeping terror' tale, which centres around a student who rents a Jacobean manor that was once owned by a "merciless hanging judge", will be read by actor Richard Usher.

The performance is presented by NeuNoir Theatre, which has described the play as 'theatre to make your blood curdle'.

Tickets for the show, which starts at 6pm, cost £10 each.
