Why see Garth Marenghi?

This Book Will Crease Your Spine

Horror Fiction's Grand Frightener, Garth Marenghi returns to stages across the UK this year, bringing more thrilling tales of the supernatural to you in his brand new book tour, This Busted Earth. Following the story of horror author Nick Sheen and his descent into madness as his own creation begins leaking from the pages, join Marenghi for yet another frighteningly fantastic evening as he adds This Busted Earth to his Sunday Times Bestselling catalogue.

Garth Marenghi is the hack writer alter-ego of comedian, writer, and actor Matthew Holness and was created by Holness and Richard Ayoade. Starting a new wave of 70s-inspired darkly comedic horror, the duo created the hospital-based Garth Marenghi's Dark Place in 2004. Its '80s effects, ridiculous storylines,  and fully in-character performances made it a cult hit. Kickstarting the careers of many of its cast, including Holness, Ayoade, and Matt Berry, and Alice Lowe, it remains a favorite among British comedy fans, with Holness's previous live Garth Margenghi events TerrorTome and Incarertat selling out quickly!
