How was Halloween commemorated in the Middle Ages? What did people believe about witches, magic and ghosts at this time?
Join us for a day that explores medieval beliefs in such things, with the chance to find out about medieval herblore and spells, as well as ghost story telling at 11am and 2pm, and the chance to take part in a 'Mummer's Play' of the story of the 'Three Living and Three Dead' at 12.30pm and 3pm, as shown in the Tower's famous wall paintings.
Tickets are Adults, £10 each, children and English Heritage members £5
