Uncanny: Fear of the Dark, the latest live show from writer and presenter Danny Robins, has added two new performances at Soho Theatre Walthamstow on 5 and 6 May 2026.
These special homecoming shows follow a sold out national tour that has run since September 2025 and will be filmed, giving audiences the chance to be part of the continuing life of the growing Uncanny phenomenon.
More than 115,000 people have attended Robins’ live Uncanny shows since 2024, reflecting the huge and ongoing appetite for paranormal storytelling across the UK. As a Walthamstow local, Robins will bring the tour to a close in his home borough.
For the first time, audiences will be able to submit their own ghost stories in advance for the chance to claim free tickets and take part in the segment where the public shares their eerie experiences. Up to six stories will be chosen, and submissions must be made by 31 March via Uncanny social media channels.
Combining theatrical storytelling, paranormal investigation and atmospheric sound and video design, Uncanny: Fear of the Dark brings to life cases involving hauntings, apparitions, poltergeists, UFO sightings and unexplained events. Robins explores these stories with expert insight from psychologist Dr Ciarán O’Keeffe and writer and parapsychologist Evelyn Hollow, with audiences encouraged to offer theories and ask questions.
Danny Robins said: “Taking Uncanny on the road and meeting thousands of fans over the last two years has been thrilling for me and I am so so happy to bring the tour to a close in my home borough! If you love ghost stories and want to try and make sense of these strange mysteries, we can promise you a fun, thought-provoking, scare-filled night out. Each case is hand-picked for the format and the atmosphere at the live shows has been electric.”
The show is written and performed by Robins, produced by Tilted and directed by Sam Hodges. The recommended age is 10+ and the running time is 120 minutes plus an interval.
The remaining tour includes stops in Birmingham, Swindon, Ipswich, Norwich, London, York, Oxford and Southampton before arriving at Walthamstow.
