Occult Torquay: An Unremembered Heritage | 7pm

From its very beginnings, Torquay folk had an interest in exploring occult ideas outside of mainstream religion and philosophy. Join Kevin Dixon for a light-hearted talk covering local pixies, druids, witchcraft, cunning folk, ghosts, pseudoscience, spiritualism, and much more.

Dr Kevin Dixon is the author of the book ‘Torquay. A Social History’, is the Chair of Consumer Health Champion, and Healthwatch, and gives talks on local history.

A Season Ticket to attend all 11 lectures in our 2025 programme is also available from this website.

Should you need to you can also purchase tickets over the telephone on 01548 830832. By purchasing a ticket you will be subscribing to the DRA Friends mailing list and will receive regular updates about our work and events, but you can unsubscribe at any time.

The Shilstone Café will be open between 6pm and 7pm for drinks and cake.
