Georgina Strychnine was a great storyteller. Good delivery and pace. We listened, we interacted, we laughed. Had a really good group who all joined in the fun. Walk was for almost 2 hours but stops were long enough not to feel too tired. Only partly uphill and only at the end. I do think guide should walk back to the beginning to help those new to the city.

An interesting walk seeing another side to Bath as it grew dark and the tourists departed. Learnt some more about the history of the town and its infamous characters. The guide played the part really well! It was quite dark in places so wear good shoes and bring a torch! ..or phone torch will do. Be prepared for a good walk, the tour is 2 hours.

    Fun & Spooky Bath Tour After Dark

    Jessica_W, Sep 2026
    Such a fun way to spend an evening in Bath! The tour took us around lots of different haunted spots throughout the city, with great, spooky stories along the way. It was a nice mix of ghost stories, atmosphere, and a really different way to explore Bath after dark. Our guide, the Professor, was fantastic. Her incredible costume and character made the whole experience feel extra special and added so much personality to the tour. She was a wonderful storyteller and kept the group entertained. I had a great time and would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun and slightly spooky evening in Bath!

    Great storytelling.

    Absolutely fantastic from start to finish And guide was very knowledgeable and hilarious She made the tour so much fun

    Wear sensible shoes...

    Wear sensible shoes because there's a lot of walking and you go into grassy areas and down cobbled streets ! Absolutely brilliant, the tour guide was excellent and interacted brilliantly with the participants, my daughter and I really enjoyed it and it's well worth booking !!

    Ghost walk and more besides

    Great walking tour, make sure to wear suitable footwear. Our tour guide was easy to spot, friendly and approachable. We found he told his stories in an enthusiastic & engaging manner. There was a very small amount of audience participation but do not let this put you off as it’s voluntary and certainly no pressure. Suitable for teenagers. Would recommend as it was something a bit different and we also learnt some things about Bath we didn’t know.

    Excellent spooky fun, highly recommended

    We got outside the Abbey and instantly realised that the guide, Mr Skinner, was there ready to greet us - replete with long dark coat and cane. Mr Skinner was an engaging mix of Richard O’Brien and Alan Rickman: an eccentric thespian, master of his art, keeping us amused and amazed as we toured the darker ghostly secrets of Bath’s past. We visited sites of murder, execution and poltergeist hauntings, at each step being encouraged to volunteer in some ghoulish activity. A fantastic two hours of fun, with ghastly tales aplenty, expertly delivered by our superb host. Would go again and recommend to anyone.

    Fun evening to add to the trip

    Prithi_R, Jul 2026
    Interesting and fun night time walk and stories with our guide Lady Rankin, former innkeeper turned tour guide 😀.

    Great fun lots of stories

    Byron_D, Jun 2026
    The guide was funny and very good at what he does . We really enjoyed our evening . Got people involved I’m sure everyone had a great time . Totally recommend it

    A Perfect Mix of Spooky and Macabre

    John_F, Jun 2026
    Georgia was an absolute delight. The naturally haunted atmosphere of Bath and her fantastic storytelling made the night unforgettable. If this is any indication of the general quality of the tour I can't imagine anyone being dissapointed.

    Excellent tour. The only...

    Katherine_S, Jun 2026
    Excellent tour. The only suggestion my 9yo daughter was she wished it was longer :) She wasn't bothered by the stories, but she has always liked spooky things.

    Good tour

    Kathy_K, Jun 2026
    Typical city ghost tour. John was a great storyteller who kept our group engaged. Got to see some great sites

    Ghost tour in Bath

    Chrissy_B, Jun 2026
    Lighthearted and fun, not dark and scary. We took our 13 yr old daughter with us and she enjoyed it (as much as a teen can with a walking tour LOL). Our guide was very sweet, dressed in period costume and had great stories that were not dark so don't be afraid to take children.

    Spooky

    Alison_W, May 2026
    This tour was full of interesting stories both historical and spooky brought to the life by the amazing miss strychnine

    Excellent spooky tour

    Carla_a, May 2026
    Excellent guide. Scary and funny at the same time. There were lots of gruesome stories. We took the tour on Halloween so it was extra spooky. Would highly recommend.

    Ghost tour fun!

    Anthony_T, May 2026
    We had a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide. The stories were great and we saw a bite of Bath.

    Fun Evening in Bath with the local ghosts

    Martha_A, May 2026
    Professor John was excellent… Informative and entertaining. Easy walk thru the city. Highly recommend

    Mrs Rankin Bath ghost walk

    Del_S, May 2026
    Very well run tour with great story’s . Tour guide dressed in great costume to really get in the right mindset, and everyone gets the opportunity to interact along the way .

    History made fun

    Jessica_R, Apr 2026
    Our guide Robert was so funny and very informative. Perfect blend of spooky and historical and you get to see so much of the beautiful city. Highly recommend!

    Travelling back to dark history

    Jaysree_R, Apr 2026
    I was skeptical at first. I was travelling solo so i thought what can go wrong. I dont regret it at all. I loved the details Mr skinner managed to give us in such short time. I love the authenticity. At one point I felt something . It was fun and spooky at the same time. Loved it . Highly recommended. Thank you.

    Goulish family fun

    Clive_M, Apr 2026
    Lots of family fun. I took two boys of 8 and 9 and they loved it. Our guide (John) was engaging, enthusiastic and clearly knew his stuff. Tip - wear decent shoes and take something warm

    Spooktacular spectacular!

    Ian_K, Apr 2026
    Just enough tongue in cheek sprinkled with grizzly facts. On a cold night we intrepid ghost hunters were royally entertained by the fascinating history of Bath and it's past residents. As a firm sceptic it kept me fully engaged and even I had to glance over my shoulder a few times. Great fun and worth the time and money.

    Ghostly disappointment.

    Douglas_P, Apr 2026
    To much chat about history, needs more about about ghosts. Lots of standing around on a chilly night.

    A lot of history and well...

    Elizabeth_T, Mar 2026
    A lot of history and well presented. Robert was at the site early and in costume which made it easy to spot him Quite a bit of walking, some parts are a little muddy.

    A lot of fun

    Scott_K, Mar 2026
    Really informative and entertaining evening. We had a small group (5 of us) and that made it better in my opinion than if we had more folks. We each get to participate as volunteers and really had a good time.

    Great!

    Michelle_H, Feb 2026
    Great entertainment for an evening! Factual and funny - really enjoyable. Highly recommended activity

    Relaxed and friendly...

    Steve_C, Dec 2025
    Relaxed and friendly ghost tour mixed with history of bath. Well worth the trip. Got some members of the group participating but it didn't feel forced, group was a good size of around 25. The only thing I would advise the tour to do is maybe a small pin badge saying I've completed the bath ghost tour. Would be a great souvenir and excellent advertising for them.

    This was a great tour....

    Karen_B, Nov 2025
    This was a great tour. Full of information and the guide was great! Easy to find the meeting point and a gentle walk around the city with lots of stories.

    Fun Tour

    Adina_S, Nov 2025
    It was a very nice walk around Bath! The guide was charming. We heard lots of fun ghost stories and historical facts.
