Coming ... ready or not!
The nights are drawing in, the leaves are falling and pumpkins are in the supermarkets: October is time for Liars' League's annual pre-Halloween frightfest of fiction! And if you want to submit a story for our next open theme(s) click here.
For our HIDE & SEEK theme we tracked down five never-before-told tales to scare you out of your skin. These were read LIVE by REAL ACTORS in front of a REAL AUDIENCE at 7pm on Tuesday October 13th at The Phoenix, Cavendish Square, and tickets remained a furlough-friendly £5!
HIDE & SEEK STORIES
EVIDENCE by Rosa Müller new author - read by Annalie Wilson
LANDLINE by Renee Agatep new author - read by Keleigh Wolf
THE HEART'S FILTHY DESIRE by Tom Leins new author - read by Tim Larkfield
THE LAST PLACE ANYONE LOOKS by Rikk Hill new author - read by Lin Sagovsky
HANDYMAN by George Aitch - read by Sean Patterson
It's a real bowl of creepy candy including girls' school ghosts, sloppy serial killers, post-apocalyptic survivalists, a haunted phone call and an eccentric aristo's personal monster museum. We also had literal candy in the form of FREE spooky sweets, as well as our horrific book quiz where brand new fiction including Christopher's Ghosts, Death Wish, Tales from the Cauldron and the Hoxton Street Monster Supplies Cookbook was won.
The venue address is the basement bar of:
The Phoenix, 37 Cavendish Square, London W1G 0PP

TL:DR

- book and pay through Paypal using the orange Donate button above, top right
THE LONG VERSION
The Phoenix has arranged cabaret seating in the basement with tables available of 2, 4, 5 and 6 people. This means you book a TABLE (for however many are in your group) rather than individual tickets, as they are not allowed to seat people of different "groups" (even if that group is only one person) together. So we strongly suggest you contact your friends if you think they'll be coming, and book a table together. If you're on your own just book a table for 2, but these are limited.Tickets will be limited to 50 (assuming all tables are full - may be slightly fewer if some tables are not full), and our ticket price remains a furlough-favouring £5.
How to book: Please use the Donate button on the top right of the LL website page (look up, look right, it's small and yellow ...) to donate the price of however many tickets you want to us. So a table for 6 would be £30, but a table for 2 with only one guest is £5 because we're not going to punish you for not filling a table. Here's how you do it.
- Click the Donate button
- Enter the amount: £5 for 1 ticket, £10 for 2 etc. (you have to type in 5 - 0 - 0 for £5, it's slightly non-intuitive)
- Click Donate. This will take you to your Paypal login (if you don't have Paypal get someone else on your table to pay for tickets :)
- IMPORTANT: Where it says Add a note please enter your name plus how many you want on your table. E.g. Katy Darby, Table for 4. Track & trace/QR code stuff is done at the venue so we don't need everyone's names, just the booker's.
- Ideally, tick the Share your email address button so we can contact you if there's any problem
- Click Donate Now
- And you're done!
N.B. ALL donated funds (after Paypal fees) support contributing actors & authors: we take nothing.
