The Ghost Newington Halloween Quiz

🎃 GHOST NEWINGTON IS BACK! 🎃

AND THIS TIME WE HAVE QUESTIONS…

😈 THE GHOST NEWINGTON HALLOWEEN QUIZ! 😈

(A real quiz! Indoors! With pints, prizes and vaguely researched questions!) 

For ONE NIGHT ONLY, the team of ghouls behind the infamous Hackney Halloween walk Ghost Newington are crawling out of their graves and taking over the MILDMAY CLUB for an unforgettable evening of questions, games, surprises and prizes! 

This Halloween (well, November 1st. The dead are notoriously bad with dates) the Ghost Master and his Minions have forsaken the curséd streets of Stoke Newington and have concocted something altogether more peculiar

But don’t come expecting some dusty, fusty old pub quiz. No Ma’am! This is our inaugural Halloween quiz… which means we have absolutely no intention of behaving sensibly! 

However, you can expect: 

⁉️ Questions to test your wits

😱 Games to test you nerve 

🧟 Riddles to scramble your brains 

🔮 Surprises we refuse to explain here

⚰️ Prizes of unimaginable magnificence* 

So gather your cleverest friends. Or your least cleverest - frankly, that could be more entertaining - don your finest capes and prepare yourselves for a night of torturous trivia, special geist appearances, and unexpected nonsense from beyond the grave that will leave you dazzled and wondering if any of this was properly risk-assessed. 

Will knowledge prevail? With chaos reign? Will one team leave with a complimentary poltergeist? 

There is but one way to find out my fiendish friends!

One Night. 

One Mildmay. 

Several Questionable Decisions. 

Get yourself there! We’ll take care of the rest! 

*Magnificence is subjective. Complaints regarding magnificence will be ignored.

The Ghost Master - Known by many names across the globe: "Dream Peddler", "Wasp Bane", "Paul"- Paul Critoph is a commanding presence on any stage, but especially small ones. He is gifted in using his mouth to form words and expelling lung air across his vocal folds to amplify them. He is also adept at moving his body between locations upon two meat covered bone stilts that he likes to call, "legs". Paul is often described as a man of many faces, including smug, bashful and horny. He is delighted to be gurning for ingrates for another Halloween and looks forward to the general public misremembering an advert he did last year.
