WE WILL NOT PREY UPON THE PARANOID, THE BEREAVED, THE CREDULOUS, THE WIDE-EYED, THE WEAK... IN RETURN WE ASK YOU PROCEED WITH AN OPEN-MIND.  SÉANCE IS AN ENTERTAINMENT ONLY AND WE CANNOT HOLD THE MEDIUM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OUTCOME.

SÉANCE transforms the interior of a shipping container into a Victorian séance room. Over 20 minutes it explores the psychology of a group of people, and asks that they believe in what might be conjured up into the room with them…

 

Warning: Complete darkness - may not be suitable for those with claustrophobia.
