Step into the twilight on Saturday 31 October (Halloween) and Sunday 1 November (All Saints Day) and uncover centuries of stories that linger within St Augustine’s Abbey.
On this one-hour guided tour, gentle whispers of the past and long-forgotten tales bring history to life, with just a touch of Halloween mystery.
As the evening light fades, your journey ends atop the Campanile Mound, offering sweeping views of the abbey… and perhaps a glimpse of its ghostly past.
