Shiverpool Ghost and History Tours
Led by costumed theatrical storytellers, guests explore Liverpool's eerie history, folklore, and haunted sites on foot. Depending on the selected route, visitors may traverse the Georgian Quarter between the city's two cathedrals, wander into the depths of St James' Cemetery Garden Necropolis, or venture through a secret trapdoor into an ancient morgue known as The Dead House. The interactive walking performances combine true historic tales with street theatre, props, and light special effects.
