Internationally acclaimed harpist, Elizabeth Jane Baldry, performs her own haunting score live to a screening of the 1922 horror film, Nosferatu.

This iconic film of German expressionist cinema was the first ever screen adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula – the original and landmark entry into the entire global genre of the horror film. More than eighty years since its release, it remains one of the most potent and disturbing horror films ever made. The sight of the hollow-eyed, cadaverous vampire rising creakily from his coffin still retains the ability to chill the blood.

"I have seen ‘Nosferatu’ many times; I've even lectured on it. But this is the finest accompaniment I've ever heard…absolutely extraordinary.” - Professor Emeritus Christopher McCullough, University of Exeter .
