SUMMARY:THE MISTLETOE BOUGH: A CHRISTMAS GHOST STORY
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis Christmas\, Blabbermouth  presents an atmospheric\, candlelit performance of the classic Christmas ghost story\, The Mistletoe Bough\, at Crewkerne Museum. ​ \n\nThough now largely forgotten\, The Mistletoe Bough was once one of Britain’s most popular and familiar Christmas songs\, something like the Victorian equivalent of ‘Last Christmas’ or ‘The Fairytale of New York’. The story at the heart of the song\, tells the chilling tale of a Yuletide wedding at a stately home\, and celebrations which go tragically wrong. Versions of the tale can be found across the globe. There are several historic houses which claim to have been the location of the true events which are said to have inspired the story\, at least one of which can be found here in England’s West Country. \n \nBlabbermouth’s Dan Broadbent is both a storyteller and an award-winning archaeologist. His brand-new version of The Mistletoe Bough has been meticulously researched and explores the tale’s long history\, taking the audience from 1920s New York to Elizabethan England\, via the battlefields of the First World War. \n​ \nWhy not make a ghost story part of your Christmas tradition and join us for an enchanting evening of story\, music and history (plus mince pies!)
