Think you know what goes bump in the night? Think again. This November, Mind Body Spirit Festival is staying open for something a little darker, as Haunted UK host Steven Holloway brings a night of true-life paranormal tales to the Main Stage.
Friday the 13th. Birmingham. After dark. What could possibly go wrong?
As the UK gets ready for a weekend of wellbeing, spiritual discovery and a little bit of magic, we’re also making room for the unexplained. For one night only, the hugely popular Haunted UK Podcast is leaving the studio behind and stepping into the spotlight for Haunted UK Live, an exclusive after-hours experience at Mind Body Spirit Festival Birmingham.
Taking place on Friday 13 November at the NEC, this is your chance to swap your usual evening plans for something far more spine-tingling. And trust us, you might want to leave a light on when you get home!
Real stories. Unexplained encounters. One very spooky Friday night.
Hosted by Steven Holloway, the voice behind the Haunted UK Podcast, which has amassed more than seven million downloads, this live show delves into the eerie stories and unsettling encounters that have kept listeners hooked.
Steven has spent years exploring the stories behind Britain's most haunted places, from historic stately homes and ancient pubs to ordinary family houses where extraordinary things have happened. Now, he's bringing some of those chilling tales to the stage.
Expect the dark history of one of Birmingham's most haunted houses, the disturbing story of a family who fled their own home in the middle of the night, a special guest, and a listener-submitted account that Steven himself has never been able to shake off.
And with no interval, there's no chance to pop out for a breather halfway through. You'll be immersed in the stories from beginning to end, with plenty of twists, turns and unexplained moments along the way.
Whether you're a firm believer in the paranormal, a curious sceptic or simply someone who loves a genuinely good ghost story, this is your invitation to explore the stranger side of life.
As Steven puts it, prepare to be “astounded and terrified in equal measure”. You've been warned!
A festival experience with a twist
Mind Body Spirit is known for helping you explore every aspect of your wellbeing, from meditation and energy healing to spiritual discovery and personal transformation. But who says a little mystery can't be part of the journey?
Haunted UK Live is part of our exclusive After Hours programme, giving you the chance to experience the festival's Main Stage in a completely different atmosphere once the show hall has closed for the day.
And the best bit? Your Haunted UK Live ticket includes entry to the festival on Friday 13 November, so you can spend the day exploring the Wellbeing Market, discovering new ideas, enjoying inspiring talks and soaking up the festival atmosphere before settling in for an evening of supernatural storytelling.
It's a full day of mind, body and spirit, followed by something that might just make your hair stand on end.
