New stage thriller Paranormal Activity based on the hit film franchise has announced casting for its West End run at the Ambassadors Theatre in London.
Paranormal Activity is playing at the Ambassadors Theatre for a strictly limited season from 5 December 2025 to 28 March 2026.
The new stage play is based on Oren Peli’s blockbuster Blumhouse film franchise, and was first produced at Leeds Playhouse last summer.
The cast will feature Melissa James (Moulin Rouge!) as Lou, Pippa Winslow (Bonnie & Clyde) as Carolanne and Jackie Morrison (An Inspector Calls) as Etheline Cotgrave, all reprising their Leeds Playhouse performances, joined by Ronan Raftery (Mary Page Marlowe) as James.
The cast also includes Cheyenne Dasri (Alice in Wonderland) as Understudy Lou and Jake Solari (The 12 Dates of Christmas) as Understudy James.

In the show, an American couple – James and Lou – move to London to escape their past, but they soon discover that places aren’t haunted, people are…
Paranormal Activity promises to reimagine the modern ghost story with an unsettling intimacy, immersing audiences in an atmosphere of creeping dread, unseen forces, and psychological tension, blending domestic horror with theatricality.
Written by Levi Holloway (Grey House) and directed by Punchdrunk’s Felix Barrett, Paranormal Activity is produced by Simon Friend and Hanna Osmolska for Melting Pot, in association with Gavin Kalin, Ken Davenport, Patrick Gracey, Jonathan & Rae Corr and Leeds Playhouse.
The creative team of Paranormal Activity also includes set and costume design by Fly Davis, illusion design by Chris Fisher, video design by Luke Halls, lighting design by Anna Watson, sound design by Gareth Fry, and casting by Stuart Burt CDG and Ginny Schiller CDG.
Paranormal Activity is playing at the Ambassadors Theatre from 5 December 2025 to 28 March 2026.
