Join Strange Britain and experience the stranger side of Sheffield in a night of ghost stories, local legends, and other strange tales.

Led by local author Adrian Finney, the Strange Sheffield Ghost Walk is back with a bumper Halloween season. Adrian will be adding extra stories to the two regular walks in the city centre and Graves Park, plus family-friendly options.

The city centre walk is a circular route starting and ending on Tudor Square at the side of Sheffield Central Library. It's a little over a mile long, and is wheelchair/mobility scooter accessible. It will take you everywhere from the venue of an old Victorian autopsy theatre to sites of ghostly encounters, and the unlikely origin of a very Sheffield swear word.

The Graves Park walk, meanwhile, starts and ends outside St James Church at Norton. It's also about a mile long, and wheelchair/mobility scooter accessible. Norton and the Graves Park area have more than their fair share of ghosts and legends – from huge devil dogs to ghostly carriages plus Bunting Nook, a road widely considered to be one of the most haunted in England.

There’ll be talk of violent deaths, historical suicides, scary ghosts, so please book at your own discretion.
