I must admit for someone who has been on just about every ghost walk in York I must admit this is one of my favourites out of the many there are in York. Fact of the matter is that this form of entertainment still attracts our attention in a world of countless ways to spend our time, these walks and... more

Organising a rally for bubblecar enthusiasts is difficult - one has to always try to find something different to entertain the masses. the Ghost hunt provided exactly that! Although still light ( the trip was on the 13th June - FRIDAY 13th) and 21 of our party opted for the ghost hunt. The narrator looked the part in dour Victorian... more

Prior to arriving in York, we had heard from several sources that the Ghost Hunt of York was the best of the ghost walks. We are so glad we followed that advice. Our whole family really enjoyed Andy and his antics. He was quite entertaining and kept everyone enthralled throughout the walking tour of the haunted sites of York. He... more

When the Ghost Hunt begins, the guide makes you one promise, that this will be a night you will never forget. And he would be right. There is no better way to see the beautiful city of York. The Ghost Hunt combines ghost stories and humor that makes the walk fun and informative. I was lucky enough to purchase a... more

I have taken many school groups onto the ghost hunt. They always leave excited and enthused. Andy copes with large groups safely with a mixture of excelent storytelling and theatrics. Enjoyable as a lone traveller or as a large group. Do not miss. more

I run a website for the TV show Supernatural, and as I was going to a convention for the show, I thought it might be a fun thing to take my friends on a ghost hunt the night before our trip. It was my first experience of a "hunt" and I can honestly say it was a fun-filled one! Our... more

Been to York a few times but had never done a ghost walk. Have to say despite the freezing temperature had an entertaining evening. Our giude dressed as a victorian funeral director had us hanging on his every word for the start. HIGHLEY RECOMMENDED more
