Description

Hold on tight for this 75-minute ghost tour of Oxford. The haunted twilight walk explores many of Oxford's back streets and alleyways, in search of some of the city’s legendary spooks.

Death is anything but dull and our specialist guides provide first-hand stories of Oxford’s streets which have played host to agony and horror, torment and terror. Meet the ghosts of a headless archbishop and a heartbroken teenager, peak inside the most haunted library in the world and feel a chill as you walk past of the old crypt of St Mary’s Church. Manifestations, apparitions and student encounters with demons, ghosts, ghouls and spirits… prepared to be very afraid.

Stroll around the oldest parts of the city, where the highest abundance of spectral activities are located. See ghostly sites such as the location where the bloody town versus gown riots began. Visit mysterious graveyards, see the mournful Bridge of Sighs, and follow in the footsteps of Dead Man's Walk.
