Halloween Week 2010

October's events  have been booked for the Cow Tower for five nights commencing Wenesday 27th through until Sunday 31st. As usual there will be two performances per night. Further details will be posted nearer the time.

Please note there will be no ordinary Ghost Walk on Thursday 28th.

Halloween Week 2009

The Ghost Team put on our Halloween Spooktacular at the end of October. In 2009 we secured the Cow Tower site and so had plenty of room to chill you for four nights from Wednesday 28th through to Saturday 31st October. Each evening there were two shows at 7.30 and 9.30.

As usual with Ghost Walks Halloween tradition, the events were kept to a much smaller area and enabling the ghost team to provide many more scares per minute than on the usual walks.

As a result, they were 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 had to be purchased in advance from either Chenery Travel in Castle Meadow or Top Hat Fancy Dress in St Benedict’s Street. There was no paid admission on the night of the event.

Any customers who could not get to the box office personally had to e-mail or telephone the Man in Black to arrange delivery of tickets. 

Phone 07831 189985
There was no charge for this service but a stamped and addressed envelope was needed to be provided with the application.

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 will only be served to spirits.

Many dressed up as a ghost or ghoul and joined in the fun. Top Hat offered costume rental at a discount of £2 per costume or accessories at a discount of 10% upon production of your Halloween ticket. Kirstie and her team were be happy to show you their range of scary merchandise. Visit www.tophatfancydress.co.uk
