About This Show
Delaware Theatre Company’s series of audience enrichment events, Connections: A Community Conversation, kicks off with Delaware Ghost Stories. Presented in conjunction with DTC’s production of The Turn of the Screw, this entertaining round-table discussion examines the folklore of local ghost stories and asks the question, “Why do we like to be scared so much?” The discussion features local artists, folklorists, and historians, including John Wattenbarger (director of the film The Stone House), Patricia A. Martinelli (author of Haunted Delaware), and Lee Jennings (Delaware State Parks historian).
Delaware Ghost Stories is partly funded by a grant from the Delaware Humanities Forum, a state program of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
