The Enfield Poltergeist

The case of the Enfield Poltergeist in 1977 has long captured the public’s imagination. Arriving at Newhampton Arts as the opening night of their Autumn 2024 tour, The Enfield Poltergeist is a dramatisation of those events focusing on the very human stories behind the lurid press headlines.

After the tragic death of his daughter, Maurice Grosse joins the Society for Psychical Research in London. But while investigating the Enfield Poltergeist in 1977, he is haunted by coincidences surrounding paranormal activity that appears to be centred around one particular girl.

Based on the true events of the infamous Enfield Poltergeist case, this is a journey of redemption, and the chance to lay old ghosts to rest.

Kiera Rhodes and Paul Voodini portray troubled characters, thrown together within the walls of a supposedly haunted council house in Enfield, who must not only solve the mystery of the poltergeist, but also find peace with their own tragic pasts.
