Back by popular demand! We've now added extra shows to our sold out After Dark Halloween Tours. Hurry, they won't hang around for long!!

Alnwick Castle After Dark
For the first time ever under the cover of darkness, Alnwick Castle is allowing a limited number of brave visitors within its walls, with the help of a guide, to hear tales steeped for years in the castle’s history.
The poor lost souls of ancient Northumberland, long forgotten over the centuries now clamour for attention.

Was that a dim figure flitting in the darkness or just a shadow of the imagination?  Did you feel a soft stroke on your face, or was it a cobweb? Feel and hear the anguish of the restless souls who lived within the walls of Alnwick Castle centuries ago. Hear their dark and terrible tales – not fit for the glare of daylight.

Dare you explore the sinister secrets of this most mysterious medieval castle over Halloween?  Beware – this evening outing is definitely not for the faint-hearted!
