Description

Embark on an intriguing journey through the shadowy tales of Cambridge, a city known for its rich history, including stories of murder, epidemics, and medieval injustices. This ghost tour reveals the chilling narratives that echo through the cobbled streets and revered university grounds, showcasing why this city is regarded as one of the most haunted in the United Kingdom.

Itinerary

The adventure commences at the specified time, where participants will gather at the main entrance of King's College on King's Parade. Together, we will meander through the city’s iconic historic lanes, unearthing the most captivating legends associated with past Cambridge scholars and the mysterious occurrences that have affected this picturesque locale.

As we traverse ancient passages and college courtyards, keep an eye out for signs of unexplained events and spectral sightings that have been documented for centuries. Among these tales is that of a wandering spirit rumored to frequently inhabit a nearby pub. Will our paths cross with this otherworldly presence? We can only hope to find out!

Our exploration will also delve into the haunting past of Oliver Cromwell, whose ghost is said to wander Sidney Sussex College, the final resting place of his severed head. Continuing our journey, we'll head to Corpus Christi College, which holds memories of the devastating plague that once ravaged the city and the dramatic uprisings that erupted at Peterhouse.

After immersing ourselves in the spine-chilling lore of the city, we will conclude our adventure outside Little St Mary's Church approximately one hour after we began.
