In the atmospheric setting of Lydiard house, surrounded by traditional Christmas cheer, you’ll hear spine-tingling ghost stories about some of the spirits that have been reported at Lydiard over the centuries.

Our fascination with ghostly stories during the festive season goes all the way back to ancient winter solstice celebrations. Recounting tales of brave heroes, monstrous creatures and the supernatural became a cherished midwinter tradition, which keep people entertained during those long, dark nights. The Victorians put their spin on it, relating ghost stories directly to the festive season – the idea of something dreadful lurking beyond the light and laughter inspired some chilling tales.

£12 per person – includes arrival drink

This event is suitable for ages 10+
