The Story

MEDDLING SPIRITS is a funny, spooky play about the owner the Sleepy Creek Inn and Winery in Sleepy Creek Virginia. Shirley is a widow who operates the winery with her daughter Juanita and son in law Delbert. They want to scheduled a seance for Hans and Jacklyn Burkhalter of Park Ave. N.Y. Shirley reluctantly agrees.

The Burkhalters daughter Jackie, who recently spent her honeymoon at the Inn, died in an attempted kidnapping upon returning home. Heart broken the Burkhalters believe the Inn will be the perfect place for the seance because “that’s where Jackie was happiest”.

With a downturn in the alignment of the stars and planets, and an approaching snow storm Psychic Madame Esmerelda and her assistant must postpone the session one day. Unfortunately Shirley doesn’t get the message because Cletas “Bull” Schmidt and Elizabeth “EZ” Zigler who have escaped from the transport van taking them to prison in WV have intercepted the message and are then mistaken by Shirley as the Psychic and her assistant. EZ says ” all we gotta do is act like a couple weirdos! to fool some people we don’t know ,into believing that we’re weirdos who know what we’re doing! how hard could it be with these bumpkins?” and they might have gotten away with it “if it hadn’t been for those meddling spirits”.
