Ghosts and Graveyards (A Guided Walk in Leicester)
"Ghosts and Graveyards" is one of the very popular Guided Walks devised and led by Blue Badge Guide Colin Crosby, of ColinCrosby Heritage Tours.
These strolls are a very good way of picking up some Local History.
Leicester, one of the oldest towns in England, has far more than its fair share of ghosts, and a good number of them seem to particularly haunt the town`s old graveyards. Leicester in fact has no fewer than five mediaeval churches in the historic Old Town.
Colin regales those taking part with a good selection of ghost stories, and suggests that you keep your eye on the person standing next to you, and check whether he disappears at any point.
Other Ghost Walks in Leicester include "Haunted Leicester", "The Haunted City", "Walk in Dread", "The Shades of Night", "Haunted Belgrave" and "A Midsummer Nights Haunt".
