Oxford Ghost Walking Tour
Overview
Take this tour, the definitive guide to the most haunted locations in Oxford and led by a professional Guide. Be careful to arrive on time or they will have disappeared!
Hear the spookiest tales from around the historic city of Oxford, from pesky pub poltergeists to bloody battles and more. This tour is a truly spooky experience with “heart-stopping accounts of apparitions, manifestations and related supernatural phenomena” and stories of “first-hand encounters with ghouls and spirits.”
Soak up the atmosphere on a misty dark night in Oxford, down winding and cobbled lanes, around the ancient colleges and past some of the oldest public houses in the UK, dating back nearly 900 years – (plenty of time to be haunted!).
Not really suitable for Under 10's - this is a 2 hour tour after dark!
