Tales of serial killers, witches and even a Black Monk will feature during a new series of spooky ghost walks now under way in the city.
The Til Death Do Us Part tour says it will 'delve into the blood-curdling parts of Newcastle’s twisted haunted history' and, being for adults-only, it promises to uncover some gruesome stuff about the likes of murderers and shady characters said to still haunt the city streets and old lanes. It's hosted by the Newcastle Ghost Walk company which was set up by Steven Taylor, who also created Haunted City Tours, and has been running since 2007.
Tickets are on sale now for the new season of walks which take place on the last Sunday of every month until November. The walks - which the company says will offer visitors 'a thrill like no other attraction in Newcastle' - will start and finish outside the historic, and atmospheric, Castle Keep which has creepy tales of its own to add to the mix.
