About this Event

EXPLORE LEEDS’ DARK HISTORY THIS HALLOWEEN WEEKEND


Uncover Leeds’s secrets and skeletons; from alien abductions and our very own mummy, to the ghosts that haunt the abbey and gruesome deaths, this special Halloween walkingtour has it all. Bring our dark past into light as you discover a unique side to our iconic city.

Leeds has a blood-stained history filled with restless spirits, mysterious deaths, and chilling encounters. Some of these tales are centuries old, others are shockingly recent, and some of them still lurk in the shadows today. Join us on this thrilling Halloween night, where every corner might hide something unexpected, and the eerie past may just come alive around you.
