About this Event

Ghost Hunt dating back to 1100s Colchester Moot Hall now Colchester Town Hall has been the centre of justice for over 800 years

Ghost Hunts are an extremely rare occurrence at this iconic building in the heart of the oldest town in England and Haunting Nights have now been granted access to areas not open to the public

Colchester Town Hall has echo’s of Nottingham’s Galleries Of Justice with underground tunnels, cells, courtroom and jury room

This sprawling location has so many areas to investigate, many layers of history and numerous unexplained happenings to experience as the 5 star Rated EXCELLENT on Trustpilot Haunting Nights team take you on an extremely rare ghost hunt at this foreboding building

Colchester Town Hall, is shrouded in tales of the supernatural. Visitors and staff have reported eerie occurrences giving an air of mystery to the building.

The most commonly mentioned experiences is that of the feeling of being watched. Unexplained temperature fluctuations in particular rooms, in the grand staircase area, where shadows being seen is a regular occurrence along with whispers and laughter.

The clock tower also has its very own ghost. It is said that a former town clerk haunts the halls, working on even after death. His presence is also felt near the mayor’s office

Other chilling tales involve the old council chambers, where ghostly apparitions have been sighted. Witnesses describe a figures dressed in Victorian attire, showing themselves briefly before vanishing into thin air.

The atmosphere in this chamber can feel heavy, during your ghost hunt here you may find out why!

Colchester Moot Hall, Town Hall Ghost Hunt do echoes of the past still linger?

Haunting Nights have held many ghost hunts over the years at some of Colchester’s most historic buildings including The Red Lion Hotel and Colchester Castle. During our time in Essex we have heard so much about the hauntings of Colchester Town Hall we just had to spend the night there….. and now at last we can!
