Carnacki – The Ghost Finder: A Spooky Adventure for Young Detectives
By William Hope Hodgson (Adapted by Mike Brooks)
A spook-tacular Halloween treat for children aged 5–10!
Meet Thomas Carnacki, a Sherlock Holmes–style detective with a very unusual speciality: solving mysteries of the supernatural. When strange knocks and bangs echo through his mother’s house at night, Carnacki uncovers a chilling tale involving a sea captain, ghostly rumours… and a woman who may not rest in peace.
Brought to life by Barking Dog’s two talented actors, this thrilling story is packed with puppetry, music, mime, and audience participation. With a little help from the children in the audience, Carnacki’s ghostly adventure becomes a magical mix of fun and frights.
Perfect for Book Week, or projects on fantasy, fairy tales, nursery rhymes, music, or drama—and guaranteed to delight young audiences.
