International Ghost Appreciation Academy

The International Ghost Appreciation Academy is our second ever Fringe show!

Sunday 27th August 2023 | The Alchemist on George Street | 20:00

With a curriculum drawn from the seminal ghost hunting manual Ghost Hunting for Dummies, the International Ghost Appreciation Academy is a 45-minute introduction to ghost hunting, followed by a brief exam. Graduating students become lifetime members of the International Ghost Appreciation Society. During this show we’ll be exploring real ghost-hunting equipment and techniques. No previous experience is required. You don’t even need to believe in ghosts. The Society welcomes everyone from the mildly curious to the thoroughly sceptical to those who just want to have a go on a ghost box.

You can get tickets on the Edinburgh Fringe website. We’re not in the printed program because we missed the deadline. Tickets are £5, and having a ticket guarantees you a seat… but you can also just turn up on the evening and pay what you feel at the end of the show.

Audience participation is, we’re afraid, the main point of the show.
