THE OTHER THING
“None of the ghosts are coming out tonight. And do you know why?
Because I’m here. And I terrify them.”

Kim is a journalist, writing what she thinks will be a run-of-the-mill article about a father and son team of ghost hunters in rural Virginia. As the three of them pass the evening outside a haunted barn, waiting for spirits to reveal themselves, what begins as just another day at the office soon becomes a night none of them will forget. In the paranormal world, the ghosts you hunt may be closer than you think.

"The Other Thing is a chatty relationship drama, a spooky thriller, and a provocative play of ideas. All at once. "
Mark Blankenship, Theatre Development Fund
"A ghost story with real thrills and quite a few chills."

"The Other Thing has that same horror film effect, but manages to do so in a small theater with only a couple of chairs, some eerie lights and music, and just four cast members."
