The Tale of Tipsy Tapsy and other Barrhead Ghost Stories

About The Tale of Tipsy Tapsy and other Barrhead Ghost Stories

What would you do if you encountered the Poltergeist Pig? Have you ever heard the slow rattle of Tipsy Tapsy? Just what exactly goes on in the Devil’s Cave?

This raggle-taggle bunch of raconteurs have been pulling out some lesser-known tales from the darkest corners of East Renfrewshire and want to bring them to the Village Storytelling Festival.

Join them for a performance of traditional story and music.

Suitable for audiences aged 12+.
