Ripon Ghost Walks

Ripon Ghost Walks explore the darker side of Ripon’s history from the macabre to the mysterious.

Have you ever been on one of our ghost walks? Well it’s a good time to join us. They are a hidden gem in our beautiful city and with such a long history, it’s no wonder the streets of Ripon are filled with stories.

You can discover ancient burial sites and curious bone findings. Characters who lived and died hundreds of years ago will come alive through story telling.  It’s a fun evening out for young and old.

Please book your Ripon Ghost Walk tickets in advance to secure your place.
