Discover the hauntings of East Anglia with these scarily brilliant ghost tours in Cambridgeshire, Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk 

Written by Natalie @stumpygumb

I am quite the wimp when it comes to Ghost tours, haunted houses and creepy scenery. I admit though, reading up on a few of these has managed to tempt me to hide behind my scarf for a few hours, and brave it!

Norwich Ghost Walks – Halloween Special

Date: Friday 27 October to Tuesday 31 October

Location: Admission by the gate on riverside walk adjacent to the St Helen’s Wharf public car park near the Adam and Eve pub

Experience the highly acclaimed tour on foot as you walk through the ancient and mystical streets of the City of Norwich. The Halloween specials will include brand new stories told in area around the ‘Cow Tower’ on the riverside park, but note they are not recommended for young children (under 8) or those of a nervous disposition. The location of the event is guaranteed to give the ghost team the maximum opportunity to terrify all who dare to attend.

Black Shuck Cambridge Ghost Tours

Date: Tours will take place throughout October and early November

Location: Alters depending on Tour 

The lamp-lit tours will lead you through the streets of Cambridge, tracing the ghosts that have haunted the city for centuries. This Halloween sees a special theatrical event celebrating 1970s horror. Taking place 27 and 28 October at Burwash Manor, the evening will be a night of frights with an Ouija board, apple bobbing, an indoctrination to a friendly local satanic cult from 1976 and a cinematic showing of the horror classic ‘The Wicker Man’. There’s also pizza and mulled wine!

Halloween specials are set to sell out quick, book your ticket at http://cambridgeghosttours.com

Peterborough Museum Candlelit Ghost Tours

Date: Third Tuesday of every month, starting at 7:30pm

The tour is led by a costumed guide, who shows visitors around the building by candlelight, explaining the various paranormal happenings at the sites where they have taken place, including the back stairs, where people have reported a ghostly servant falling to her death and a phantom girl seen and heard in recent months. Due to its gruesome content, this tour is not recommended for children under 10 or those of a nervous disposition.
