Whispering Bones

This year Whispering Bones presents a very special weaving of witchy tales.  Stories of the witches that haunt our nightmares; the witches that live in our suspicions; the witches that make us laugh; the witches who scar our souls--or heal them. The very talented cast includes Katherine Danforth-Hayes, Jenny Wright, Jewell Winant, Shawn Paper, Isabel Coviello and additional special guests.  Dr. Betterov-Underhill will be on hand to promote his line of Dead People products, including his “Don’t Go Thither” Zither, acclaimed in the lower world, and banned on many of the outer planets. And Shannah (Katherine Danforth-Hayes) will return with another episode of “Shannah’s Spell Closet!”  

Come join us for a night of fun, spooky and thought-provoking stories.  Suitable for ages 12 and above.  Spooky and sometimes disturbing descriptions but no gore.
