“A smart, original approach makes this much more than just another ‘Exorcist’ wannabe. You’ll sense that there are horrors coming, but you still won’t quite feel ready”
DOORS: 15:00 | FILM STARTS 15:15
It’s back… Venture deep into Redcliffe Caves – for the latest instalment of our infamous Horror In The Caves series. Enter through a hole in the wall on Redcliffe Wharf, grab a drink from our pop-up bar to steel your nerves, and step foot inside one of Bristol’s most unusual and exclusive locations for another season of classic and contemporary horror movies. We look forward to welcoming you – if you’re brave enough…
In case you missed it in cinemas last year, we’re screening Late Night with the Devil, the chilling horror sensation that sees a 1970s talk show descend into demonic chaos. David Dastmalchian shines as a somewhat sleazy chat show host presiding over a Halloween special gone wrong in a film that blends found footage, retro flair, dark humour and supernatural terror. Make sure to tune in for an episode to remember…!
Please note: Redcliffe Caves is a unique event space - we strongly recommend all guests read the ‘Venue & Event Information’ tab at this bottom of this page prior to booking.

In a bid to rescue falling ratings for his late-night TV show Night Owls, 70s TV chat show host Jack Delroy hosts a special Halloween episode exploring the occult, including a guest who claims to be possessed by a malevolent spirit.

About The Location
Redcliffe Caves are one of the most fascinating locations in Bristol. Originally created to mine sandstone glass in the 17th Century, these caves (technically a quarry!) have a rich and varied history, having been used by hermits, prisoners of war, and even as an air raid shelter. Now, they are accessed through a gate on the Harbourside, and are usually closed to the public.
