The Ghost Light
Is A Hair-Raising Story-Within-a-Story!
A Gothic Ghost Story-Time-Traveling-Murder-Mystery, Surrounded by Stunningly Unsettling Images.
You’ll want to cover your eyes from the scares but won't for “fear” of missing what happens next!
Caitlin Muelder, grew up performing in an Orpheum Theater in Galesburg, Illinois.
As an actor, writer, and director, her inspiration for The Ghost Light comes from stories of various
haunted theaters and from witnessing firsthand, “something unexplainable” onstage,
during a production of The Glass Menagerie directed by Joseph Hardy, a former stage manager,
and personal friend to the late Tennessee Williams.
