About

Christmas is a time for ghost stories...

Or so the Victorians believed - do you dare to spend an evening in Peterborough Museum by candlelight alone?

The Museum is reputedly the most haunted building in the city, with many ghosts said to be lurking around its halls. A ghostly servant, a phantom girl and the museum's most notorious ghost: the 'Lonely ANZAC', Thomas Hunter.

This tour, led by a costumed guide, sets out to uncover some of their stories.

Tours last about 90 minutes. Not recommended for under 14s or those of a nervous disposition, and due to the nature of the building is unsuitable for those with mobility impairments.

Booking is essential.
