Our collection of experiences across Bristol and Gloucestershire continues to grow, introducing new locations and new ways to explore the history, folklore and hidden layers of this remarkable part of the country.
The Bristol Ghost Walk
Bristol is a city shaped by trade, faith and ambition, where centuries of maritime power and urban expansion have left deep marks on the landscape. Our Bristol Ghost Walk explores the layered history of this historic port city, moving beyond its lively harbourside and cultural reputation to uncover the medieval origins, merchant wealth and darker episodes that emerge after dark.
Best known for its historic docks, dramatic Avon Gorge and centuries of maritime influence, Bristol developed as one of England’s most important trading cities. Beneath its bustling streets lie stories shaped by commerce, conflict, religious change and the lives of those who passed through its ports. As we guide you through the historic centre, you will encounter researched accounts, documented history and carefully selected locations long associated with unexplained experiences.
Guests may also observe or take part in a measured, optional paranormal exploration, blending research-led storytelling with immersive engagement. This is not a theatrical performance, but a carefully curated heritage experience.
The Gloucester Ghost Walk
Gloucester is a city where ancient foundations and medieval authority remain visible in the streets today. Our Gloucester Ghost Walk explores the layered history of this cathedral city, moving beyond its historic docks and imposing architecture to uncover the Roman origins, monastic power and enduring mysteries that shape its character after dark.
Best known for its magnificent cathedral, medieval gateways and long-standing role as a regional centre of power, Gloucester began as the Roman settlement of Glevum before developing into an important ecclesiastical and commercial hub.
