At night the ancient City is deserted. And eerie. Exploring its shadowy back streets and dimly lit alleys we might be in a medieval citadel, in overpowering stone. The very street names – Aldersgate, Cloth Fair, Charterhouse, Threadneedle – take us far back. We’re alone… Or are we? For this is the hour when the She-Wolf of France glides through the churchyard, the hour when the dark figure on Newgate wall rattles his chains, the hour when the Black Nun keeps her lonely vigil, and something inexpressibly evil lurks behind a tiny window. We’re on their trail… Or are they shadowing us? “How easy it is to awaken the unwanted attention of things that should sleep quietly in their tombs or hiding places…” Guided by the Duke of Darkness or the Shadow Walker or the Woman in Black.
Want to preview the walk and the guiding? Watch the video.
The Duke of Darkness is Shaughan. The Shadow Walker is Adam. The Woman in Black is Karen – she’s merely “the world’s greatest guide”, according to the Travel & Leisure rankings.*
It all comes down to the guiding (exponentially so on Ghost Walks) – but don’t just take our word for it.
Or for that matter, their word. See for yourself.
N.B. the Halloween Ghosts of the Old City walk ends back at St. Paul’sTube Stop. Or near enough to.
*Karen’s Travel & Leisure coronation was of course presaged by her winning the London Tourist Board’s Guide of the Year Award.
