About this Event

👻 Wakefield Ghost Walk – An Evening of Haunted History


Step into the shadows of Wakefield and uncover the chilling stories that linger in its streets…


Led by The Curator, this guided ghost walk explores Wakefield’s true historical hauntings, folklore, and darker past, blending atmospheric storytelling with documented local legends. Expect tales of executions, restless spirits, and places where history refuses to lie quietly.


This is not a jump-scare tour — it’s an immersive, narrative-led experience rooted in real locations, original research, and traditional ghost lore.


🕯 What to Expect:

  • A guided walking tour of Wakefield city centre
  • Stories based on historical records, folklore, and eyewitness accounts
  • Atmospheric storytelling at outdoor locations
  • A visit to a haunted location at the end of the walk
  • A free slice of pizza included at the start
