Ghost Stories Writing Workshop for women with Hannah Simpson - hosted by Inspiring Women Network

About the event
👻 Ghost Story Writing Workshop
Create. Imagine. Perform.

Join us for a creative and immersive Ghost Story Writing Workshop, where you’ll explore storytelling, imagination, and performance in a relaxed and supportive space.

This session is designed to help you unlock your creativity, build confidence in storytelling, and have fun experimenting with ideas — whether you love writing, performing, or simply trying something new.

✨ What to Expect
We’ll begin by exploring the foundations of a great ghost story, including:

Structure and storytelling techniques

Perspective and voice

Gothic themes and atmosphere

You’ll then take part in a series of fun and interactive activities:

Sharing and retelling ghost stories in small groups

Bringing stories to life through performance and physicality

A guided free-writing exercise to spark creativity

Developing your own ghost story — from a single idea to an outline or opening

There will also be time to reflect, share, and connect with others in a supportive environment.

🌿 Who is this for?
Women who enjoy writing or storytelling

Those looking to build confidence in creative expression

Anyone curious to try something new in a welcoming space

No writing or performance experience is needed — just come as you are.

📝 What to Bring
A notebook or paper

A pen

An open mind and imagination

💜 What You’ll Leave With
A deeper understanding of storytelling

Your own ghost story (or the beginnings of one!)

Increased confidence in expressing your ideas

A fun and memorable creative experience
