About
Our 60-minute outdoor ghost tour. Wander through eerie streets where ghostly apparitions have been reported for centuries. We don’t use props or jump scares—instead, we share the fascinating supernatural stories that bring Cambridge’s history to life.
Hear about the restless spirit said to haunt a local pub and the ghosts linked to some of the city’s oldest sites. Discover the strange events at Peterhouse that made headlines nationwide, and learn about the dark history of Corpus Christi College and the tragic fates that befell many there.
The tour ends near the city centre, close to the lively parts of town—just in time for a meal or a drink to shake off the spookiness of your journey.
