The Witch Walk
Experience

FOLLOW THE WITCH into the hidden heart of haunted York, where restless spirits rise from the Underworld and Twilight Tales of ghosts, witches and monsters linger down dark snickleways!

Ragnell brings back the lost Magic, as she weaves a three thousand year tapestry of the Old Tales - the folklore, history and bewitchment of our ancient city! By turns horrific, hilarious and poignant - this is not just a walking tour: it is re-enchantment!

Blesséd Be, Witchwalker!
