Based on the Paranormal Activity films, written and directed by Oren Peli, the smash-hit stage production will return to the West End this summer following a brief hiatus. It will mark a third extension for the play.

Paranormal Activity will bring its nerve-shredding West End scare-fest back to the Ambassadors Theatre from 8 August. Immersive theatre pioneer and Punchdrunk’s Founder and Artistic Director, Felix Barrett directs the show written by Levi Holloway.

Hailed by our critic as a “Slick and scary show”, it follows James and Lou, an American couple who move to London to escape their past, but they soon discover that places aren't haunted, people are.

Casting for the run is to be announced.

The creative team also includes Fly Davis as Set and Costume Designer, Illusions by Chris Fisher, Anna Watson as Lighting Designer, Gareth Fry as Sound Designer, Video Design by Luke Halls, and Casting Direction by Stuart Burt CDG and Ginny Schiller CDG.

Paranormal Activity is produced by Simon Friend & Hanna Osmolska for Melting Pot in association with Gavin Kalin, Ken Davenport, Jenny King, Patrick Gracey, Jonathan & Rae Corr and Leeds Playhouse.
