An epic quest to unlock the mystery of an occult heirloom takes David Bramwell into the underbelly of 90’s bohemian Brighton.

After inheriting a hundred-year-old moustache from an eccentric great aunt, Bramwell sets out to discover all he can about its former owner, Ambrose Oddfellow. Drawn into Brighton’s subcultures, he participates in seances, visits spiritual churches and unwittingly becomes the temporary host of a modern-day ‘freakshow’ in a basement club.

Beginning to believe that his hairy heirloom is possessed, Bramwell joins a cult, dabbles with telepathy-inducing psychedelics and has a mind-bending vision. Can he solve the mystery of his inheritance before his sanity gives in? And what of the mysterious Drako Oho Zarhazar, a former Dali model who appears to be somehow linked to his prized possession?

In the tradition of Spalding Gray, The Haunted Moustache is a film of Bramwell’s funny and affecting monologue – a modern day fireside tale served on a bed of celluloid.

We are thrilled to welcome star and writer David Bramwell for a live Q and A after the film. He will also be at Electric Palace at 6pm for his talk and book launch for 'From Shaman to Starman: The Secret History of Live Entertainment'.
