Step into a world where the supernatural feels alive and full of wonder.

A mesmerising puppet dance troupe, each puppet embodying a unique ghostly character brought to life through vibrant, choreographed movement. 

Meet The Family of Phantoms; draped in illuminated, flowing capes these ghosts move as one; like a drifting cloud, gently enveloping audiences as they float mysteriously, appearing and disappearing, in pursuit of the ghost rider on wheels and their accompanying ethereal music. 

The music weaves spiritual, mischievous and atmospheric tones with hidden melodies, creating an immersive soundscape that perfectly complements our enchanting parade through streets and venues. 

  • Six to sixteen-piece puppet dance troupe. 
  • Each performance can last up to forty minutes and can be performed three times daily. 
  • Perfect for ghost walks, haunted trails, historic houses, heritage locations and Halloween celebrations. 

Community group and school participation  

Community group and school participation  

Depending on your event and budget, we can enhance the group of six adult ghosts with six teenage ghosts and four younger ghosts, perfect for involving local dance schools or community groups. Each community performer has a ghost puppet with their own personality and story, playfully interacting with one another and charming the audience with their mischievous antics. Our choreographer will work with your dance schools or community groups to teach them the moves and be part of the parade. 

Spooky Spectaculars
