With your ghoulish guide, you’ll delve into Greenwich’s dark past and visit sites shrouded in mystery and legend. Weave your way around the labyrinth of Greenwich’s lanes and hear tales of restless souls, royal ghosts and lingering spirits. Visit, too, Charles Dickens’ favorite pub and the oldest Royal Park in London, and dare to wander through Greenwich foot tunnel, considered one of the spookiest spaces in London.

Highlights • See the most haunted building in London • Hear about famous Death tree • Discover what palace is abandoned by the Royal family • Walk through the royal park which once was a burial place   London has always been haunted by ghosts.
