After dark ghost tales returning to Belsay Hall, Castle and Gardens for Halloween

Ghost-hunting storytellers will take visitors on a family-friendly walk through the shadows of Belsay Hall’s grounds. The talented performers will captivate audiences with a range of engaging activities, including spine-chilling storytelling.

In addition, they will immerse participants in the art of the Vampire Sword School, where they can learn and practice the skills of a true vampire warrior.

This is an event suitable for all ages and visitors are encouraged to bring a torch and suitable shoes.

The Spooky Woodland Walks are running at 5.30pm, 6.30pm and 7.30pm on Monday, October 28, Tuesday, October 29, Wednesday, October 30 and Thursday, October 31. Tickets cost £18 or £14 for English Heritage members and must be pre-booked in advance.

During the days, Belsay Hall will be running its Halloween Half-Term activities.
