Meeting point

King's Parade, Cambridge

  • See where Wordsworth made ghost spotting scientific and hear about the digging up of dead bodies
  • Find the origin of the phrase ‘the skeleton in the cupboard’ and learn how witches were dealt with in Cambridge
  • Learn about the nice ghost in the haunted bookshop and the unhappy ghosts of Corpus Christi

Find out why you might see horses floating around King’s Chapel. See if you can espy Oliver Cromwell’s ghost, and end up in the most haunted place in Cambridge. The age of Cambridge University, the even older age of the city, and the dank fens surrounding the city are the perfect ingredients for spooky events on this ghost tour.

All the guides for this tour are either current or former students at Cambridge University. They have lived in drafty old college buildings, they have shivered in dark corners of the colleges, and some have even experienced ghosts!

  • Show your ticket at the meeting point in front of King’s College on King’s Parade, Cambridge
  • Look out for your guide wearing a royal blue uniform
