What you can expect

Explore one of the most haunted cities in the country and uncover the chilling history of Cambridge on our 60-minute ghost tour. Wander through eerie streets where ghostly apparitions have been reported for centuries. Hear tales of the restless spirit that haunts a local pub and the ghost of Oliver Cromwell, said to linger at Sidney Sussex College. Be intrigued by the strange occurrences at Peterhouse that made headlines nationwide.

Learn about mysterious sightings at Corpus Christi College and how the plague influenced its supernatural events. No props, jump scares, or costumes are used—this is an immersive dive into the legends and folklore of a city otherwise known as a rational and scientific cradle. While ghost sightings are not guaranteed, we'll certainly do our best to bring these haunted tales to life!

This shared walking tour is conducted in English and takes place outdoors. Indoor access to structures is not included unless specifically booked as an additional option. For possible entry to specific colleges, we recommend arranging this in advance.
