The 2011 Halloween specials followed the established format of new stories told in an area around the 'Cow Tower' on the riverside park. We walked from October 27th to 31st inclusive. Over 1200 people enjoyed five nights of ghostly tales from around the world in a really spooky setting.
The Halloween specials are not recommended for young children (under 8) or those of a nervous disposition. The location of the event is guaranteed to give the ghost team the maximum opportunity to terrify all who dare to attend.
Tickets were available in advance from either Chenery Travel in Castle Meadow or The Adam and Eve on Bishopsgate. There will be no paid admission on the night of the event.
Any customers who could not get to the box offices personally were able to e-mail or telephone the Man in Black to arrange delivery of tickets.

All tickets cost £6.
Admission was by the gate on riverside walk adjacent to the St Helens Wharf car park near the Adam and Eve pub.
The Adam and Eve offered a barbeque (Ghoulburgers and Spooky dogs a speciality) for those whose stomachs can stand the stress along with their usual range of excellent wines, beers and soft drinks. Spirits however were only be served to spirits.
