How to Write Your Own Ghost Story

HighTide’s guide to Writing Ghost Stories

Do you love ghost stories and want to try writing one yourself?  Or did you see HighTide’s production of Ghost Stories By Candlelight and now feel inspired?  We’ve put together a new ghost story writing guide for creative writers of all levels and experience to learn from and be inspired by. Come and have a go…if you think you’re scary enough. Plus, you can send it to us for a chance to have it performed by professional actors.

The writers of Ghost Stories By Candlelight were all inspired by the famous short story writer, M.R. James.  He set many of his most well-known ghost stories in East Anglia. We’ve put together a new ghost story writing guide which includes his ‘top tips’ for writing scary tales and we’ve added in some of our own modern tips too.
