England · GHOST & HAUNTED TOURS
The shortlist you would text a friend the week before they fly: 9 ghost & haunted tours, each with what it costs, what travellers said and the one thing to know before booking.
Shadows of York blends ghost stories, grim history, theatrical guides, and cobbled streets into a lively 90-minute evening walk.
“Walk around the city for approximately 90 minutes. Some interesting stories but couldn’t always understand what the tour guide was saying.”
Explore Bath after dark on a funny, interactive ghost walk covering the Abbey, Roman Baths, Queen Street, and eerie paranormal experiments.
“We had the best time on this tour! The guide was funny and engaging, full of useful information, and just wonderfully spooky. Highly recommend, seeing the city in a different light at night was such a treat.”
Explore Jack the Ripper sites, Smithfield Market, execution history, and haunted London by vintage coach, ending at the Sherlock Holmes Pub.
“There was nothing haunted about this tour. It was only focused on the Jack the Ripper only. There was nothing about Sherlock Holmes but to be dropped off at the pub at the end of the tour.”
Explore Cambridge after dark on a lively ghost walk featuring Oliver Cromwell, Lord Byron, haunted colleges, and old city legends.
“Joining as a solo traveler gave me some difficulties, because you can only book after others have already booked. Though understandable (they want to make sure there are enough people joining to make it worth their while), this was a bit frustrating too. The tour itself was very much fun. Our guide Cid was friendly, enthousiastic and knowledgeable. After learning Cambridge has a ghost on practically every street corner, it was also 'fun' walking back to the hotel in the dark alone;).”
Explore Liverpool’s St James Cemetery by lantern light with vivid ghost stories, cathedral views, local folklore, and a touch of Victorian history.
“Very enjoyable experience learned alot of instresting stuff. Good tour guides nice and friendly approachable.”
A spooky Zoom tour led by lively guides, with Bristol and London ghost stories, Penny Dreadfuls, quizzes, and practical booking tips.
“Enjoyable hour learning about some of the London's ghost stories. It could use a bit more photo material, but all in all a nice tour that I recommend checking out. Charming guide made it well worth it.”
Explore haunted Mayfair by night, from Green Park’s plague pit to royal ghosts, with a guide, a little history, and some practical caveats.
“The tour was good, not particularly scary but interesting enough - if you have a spare night in London and you're into plague pits and hainted buildings, this is a good one.”
Explore Greenwich after dark on a two-hour ghost walk with tales of pirates, wartime hauntings, Dickens, Houdini, and the Queen's House ghost.
“A brilliant walk around Greenwich- Jamie was a fantastic guide, we were lucky enough to be the only guests on that particular evening tour and he really made it a special experience for us (myself and my 13yr old daughter who's fascinated by the paranormal). Great relaxed manner with an excellent knowledge of history and literature, also really knew his stuff on the spooky side with some great tales of paranormal investigations. A very manageable walk on level ground and a family-friendly finish time at just after 9pm. Highly recommended!”
Explore haunted pubs, plague sites, old churches, and execution grounds on a small-group London walk led by engaging guide Arthur.
“Interesting historical inputs. The guide has studied history and knew lots about all kinds of topics. Not just reciting, but "living" the stories. We loved it.”
