Join English Heritage historian Dr Michael Carter and Professor Dale Townshend at 1066 Battle of Hastings, Abbey and Battlefield to discover why medieval monks and nuns wrote so many ghost stories. You can expect tales of tormented souls returning from Purgatory, rotting revenants rising from their graves and devils and demons stalking the precincts of monasteries ready to tempt the unwary into sin and damnation.

This event has moderate access as there are a few steep steps.
