Highlights

The Deathly Dark Tour of York is a grim and theatrical, dark comedy walking tour, perfect for those who have a bit of a wicked streak and are looking to explore the dark and spooky history of the city with one of our guides, famous for their wonderfully dark sense of humour.


Please note, this is not a scare attraction, it is a storytelling experience.


The tour is family friendly, but some may find the stories frightening. Children must remain with their parent/guardian at all times.


Tour group size is 20-50 people, although this will change depending on the season. Private and small group tours are available on request.
