It was the tradition in Victorian times to tell ghost stories in the parlour between Christmas and the New Year.
The Mavens of Mystery, Storytelling for Adults, are delighted to present Lee Porteous and Marva K. Blackmore. Together, they are presenting an afternoon of intriguing stories to share with you. Can you think of a better way to spend an afternoon after Christmas and before the New Year celebrations?
Every story has a ghost. Some may be funny. Some may be scary. But, if you like a good ghost story, then Lee and Marva are certain to chill your bones as you listen to the stories both new and old.
Marva Blackmore is the past president of the Storytellers of Canada and now lives in Qualicum Beach. She has performed locally, nationally, and internationally, including at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa. She is the Artistic Director of Tales for the Telling at the McMillan Arts Centre in Parksville and also teaches Memoir Writing on Vancouver Island. Her website is www.wordweaver.info.
Lee Porteous is the president of the Victoria Storytellers Guild. She also has performed locally, nationally, and internationally, including the Forest Storytelling Festival in Port Angeles. Lee frequently travels to Nanaimo to tell with the Around Town Tellers and to Parksville to perform with the Mid-Island StoryTellers. She is always eager to tell you a good story.
