What to expect

1

York Minster

We stop at York Minster, not just for its grandeur, but to uncover the ghostly whispers of ancient monks, a cursed workman, and the chilling tales that haunt its hallowed grounds.

2

Shambles

We pause at The Shambles, where the crooked streets and overhanging timbered shops hide the eerie echoes of butchered souls, plague victims, and shadowy figures that still tread these haunted cobbles

3

Bedern Hall

We stop at Bedern Passage, a narrow, unassuming alley with a dark history of orphaned children, mysterious deaths, and the lingering spirits said to roam this hidden corner of York.

The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
