On a Blackpool Ghost Walk you should expect spooky tales galore, along with stories of terror, mystery and the macabre!

Supernatural Events’ founder and host of the walks Stephen Mercer said: “I have presented occasional Blackpool Ghost Walks since 2010, however this year I am thrilled to be able to host the walks right through the summer season.

“During the main school holiday period (August) the ghost walks will take place five nights a week.

“Blackpool Ghost Walks are totally family friendly; so everyone is welcome to join me.

“We’ll walk along part of our famous Promenade before winding our way around the town centre, stopping at some of Blackpool’s most important historic buildings and attractions to hear stories of ghostly goings-ons, eerie encounters, strange sounds, supernatural sightings, phantoms, shipwrecks, foghorns and much more!

“It’s going to be fright-fully good fun and I can’t wait to get started!”

Blackpool Ghost Walks begin at 7.30pm from the front of North Pier (the meeting point is next to the ice cream/candy floss stall).

They last approximately one and a half hours
and are fully accessible for all.
