Ropetackle Storytellers: Deliver us from Evil

About this event

Storyteller Aaron Oliver shares the forgotten story of the first recorded case of Tourette's Syndrome – a 15th Century priest who believed he was possessed by a demon. With two vicars for parents and his own Tourette's diagnosis, Aaron dives into the mind of a religious leader at war with his own body and asks: how do the stories we tell ourselves change us? 

"A gripping watch with a powerful message." 

"It was really moving…the time flew past." 

Ropetackle Storytellers regulars Amelia Ace Armande and Joshua Crisp will be sharing short stories of hauntings and possessions.
