The Monkey's Paw

A Halloween fundraising event where you can hear the famous tale of The Monkey’s Paw in the spooky settings of The Weaver’s House after dark!

If you had 3 wishes, what would you wish for? Be careful, as they may come at an enormous cost. This macabre tale of being careful how you play with fate was written in 1902 and has since been adapted into many screen and stage versions.

We are pleased to present this new recorded version by actor Paul Nolan, who has a special family connection with The Weaver’s House. Come and hear this chilling tale whilst warming up with seasonal drinks and nibbles, all whilst raising funds to the upkeep of this unique part of Coventry’s medieval history.

The Weaver's House is located on Spon Street, one of the most historic areas in Coventry. One of the cottages has been restored to show how it would have looked in 1540. The Monkey’s Paw runs for approximately 35 minutes plus there will be extra paranormal tales of the house from our one of our guides.

Tickets must be booked in advance. Admission is £10 per person and must be booked in advance via volunteers@theweavershouse.org.

Friday 30 and Saturday 31 October 2026, 5.30pm and 7.30pm. Suitable for over 12s (under 16 must be accompanied by an adult).
