The Ghost Train is a stage comedy-thriller, written in 1923 by the English actor and playwright, Arnold Ridley. The story centers upon the social interaction of a group of railway passengers who are stranded at a remote rural station overnight, and are increasingly threatened by a latent external force, with a “denouement” ending. The play ran for over a year in its original sold-out London theatrical run and is regarded as a modern minor classic. It has been adapted for several movies and radio dramas over the years. The setting: A waiting room of the (dingy, rundown) Railway Station at Clear Vale Junction, Rockland, Maine. Circa 1930.
A note from the Director: I have referred to it as “Agatha Christie meets Scooby Doo”.
