Guy's Hospital Chapel in London, the only surviving 18th century hospital chapel in England, was the stunning backdrop for last night's reading by The Librarian as part of #londonmonthofthedead.
He's back in #London on 18 Jan at the Old Red Lion Theatre. Early bird prices available now!

Another wonderful tour by #LondonMonthoftheDead festival - this time in Brompton cemetery. No ghouls but I did see the grave of a suffragette, a piece of the Giant’s Causeway stolen for a headstone, and a very dank crypt!
We are over the moon to have been invited to bring a reading to the legendary London Month Of The Dead festival!
The Librarian will be reading two 'Tales After Dark' at the atmospheric Guy's Hospital Chapel on Saturday 1st November.

Was at a seance tonight as part of #LondonMonthoftheDead in Kensal Green cemetery & I LOVED how blunt Londoners are at a seance: ‘I am getting a Barbara here for you …’ ‘Don’t know a Barbara mate’. 💀😆
Have been booking some events for London’s Month of the Dead: londonmonthofthedead.com Last year, I really enjoyed learning about the 18th feather man (a man with ostrich’s feathers who led the procession at a funeral). I’ve left instructions for a feather man at my own funeral #LondonMonthoftheDead
Went to a couple of great talks hosted by London Month of the Dead - Dr Jane Sidell discussing archaeological finds of human remains in the Thames, and Cat Irving exploring the history of anatomy and the Catholic Church #history #heritage #LondonMonthOfTheDead
This feels suitable for my first post; it's Halloween 🎃 season and I'm giving a talk for #londonmonthofthedead We'll be discussing the psychology behind the ‘mad scientist’, and thinking about what happens when science turns 'bad'. AND there's cocktails! londonmonthofthedead.com/madscientist...
