Highlights

Take this tour, the definitive guide to the most haunted locations in Oxford and led by a professional Guide. Be careful to arrive on time or they will have disappeared! Hear the spookiest tales from around the historic city of Oxford, from pesky pub poltergeists to bloody battles and more. This tour is a truly spooky experience with “heart-stopping accounts of apparitions, manifestations and related supernatural phenomena” and stories of “first-hand encounters with ghouls and spirits.” Soak up the atmosphere on a misty dark night in Oxford, down winding and cobbled lanes, around the ancient colleges and past some of the oldest public houses in the UK, dating back nearly 900 years – (plenty of time to be haunted!). Not really suitable for Under 10's - this is a 2 hour tour after dark!

About Oxford

Oxford is England's famous university city, with honey-coloured colleges, libraries, museums and river meadows beside the Thames and the Cherwell.

Oxford has been a university town since the 12th century, and its dreaming spires belong to colleges that stand shoulder to shoulder around quadrangles and gardens. The Radcliffe Camera, a round domed library, the Bodleian Library, the Sheldonian Theatre and Christ Church, whose dining hall inspired scenes in the Harry Potter films, are the best known. The Hertford Bridge, a covered footbridge nicknamed the Bridge of Sighs, links two parts of one college.

Top-ranked sights in Oxford: Bodleian Library, Radcliffe Camera, Trinity College .
