Spooky session of political party in Durham, for instance (6)
I believe the answer is:
seance
'spooky session' is the definition.
'seance' can be an answer for 'session' (synonyms). I'm unsure of the 'spooky' bit.
'political party in durham for instance' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'political party' could be 'anc' (African National Congress, South African party) and 'anc' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'see' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for seance that I've seen before include "spirited meeting" , "Meeting with spiritualist present" , "Medium experience?" , "Dead-contacting meeting" , "Spiritualist meeting to contact the dead" .)
