Description
Danny Robins became Britain's go-to ghost expert by accident — and now he can't get rid of them.
Danny Robins is a British writer, broadcaster and playwright known for creating and hosting the BBC's Uncanny podcast and TV series, and for writing the acclaimed West End play 2:22 A Ghost Story. His work bridges comedy and the supernatural in ways that manage to be both funny and genuinely unsettling.
- How a comedy writer became the UK's most trusted voice on unexplained phenomena — and when the fascination really took hold
- What started as a podcast and became a BBC TV series, live tours, and a book
- The unsettling film that influenced his signature look — and the surreal experience of being interviewed by The Guardian as Basil Brush
- As a Halloween Bonus: Clinton Baptiste pops in to talk theatre ghosts, plus an excerpt from Steve's Edinburgh show featuring his own spine-tingling tale
