5.00What a delight! We thoroughly enjoyed our ghost walk and learned a lot about Otley (even though we have lived there for years!). The vibe was fun rather than fear and this worked well for us - a marvellous way to start an evening out in Otley!

5.00A really lovely way to spend a chilly Twixmas evening. With family visiting from NZ we found this a great way to show them more of Otley, and learnt some new bits of ghoulish history ourselves too. All in all a very enjoyable & interesting evening, highly recommended 🥰

5.00Solo or with friends, this tour is awesome! Atmospheric, engaging and so much fun lore and history about the town! Our tour guide, Daisy (or Spindleshanks👻) did a wonderful job of connecting the group, keeping us engaged and immersed in the spooky atmosphere! Many interesting and creepy stories and beautiful scenery, as well as plenty of jokes and fun! I would highly recommend attending any of the Yorkshire ghost walks offered by this company!!🤍 I attended the Leeds one as well and it was so much fun! Do yourselves a favor and book a ghostly walk with them!🤗
Fantastic!
