Ghost tours to reveal the haunted tales of Hebden Bridge
There will be the chance to hear about the haunted tales of Hebden Bridge as Yorkshire Ghost Tours launch a new tour around the town.
Every Saturday from June 13 there will be two hour-long guided walking tours led by ghostly character, Master Bartholomew Catch.
The tours will explore haunted tales of Hebden Bridge as well as folklore and local history. The walks will celebrate local businesses on the tours and work with local people to get their stories across.
A spokesperson for Yorkshire Ghost Tours said: “We decided Hebden Bridge was a perfect location for a haunted walk because of its incredible history, local ghost stories and folklore.
“From gruesome beheadings to the mill history, to the hippies to the horse-drawn phantom who haunts the canals (and much more!), the picturesque market town is a bustling spot with an incredibly gory past.
“Our ghostly guide, Master Bartholomew Catch has his own link to the town with his historic circus having made history in Hebden once upon a time.
“Hebden Bridge’s culture is undeniable - you can feel the history beneath every footstep.
“We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to open a ghost walk in Hebden Bridge. They will be running twice every Saturday evening from June 13 at 6.30pm and 8pm.
“The walk is suitable for all ages and dogs are welcome too – the hour-long route makes for a scenic and informative dog walk.”
