The experience

If you have a free evening in or near London and want to step away from the usual tourist circuit, Amersham's Old Town offers something different: a real English medieval town with a documented history of paranormal activity. The tour is built on genuine research and case files, not theatrics. Ashley Darkwood, who organizes UK ghost events and works with respected paranormal researchers, leads the walk and grounds each stop in centuries of dark history, from the fate of the Amersham Lollards, a group of religious dissidents executed in the late Middle Ages, to the final resting place of the last woman to be executed in the UK, to the pubs where people still report paranormal activity today.

The route moves through the old town centre and its surrounding area, stopping at sites where the history itself is the story. You'll visit haunted pubs largely unchanged for centuries, where current witnesses describe ongoing paranormal events. The guide also covers evidence of witchcraft fears among former residents: details that emerge only when someone has spent years digging through records and talking to locals. The two-hour walk is accessible to all fitness levels, and the town's surfaces and areas are wheelchair accessible. If you're traveling with infants or small children, a pram or stroller works fine. Public transportation options are nearby, and the tour location itself is reachable by accessible transport.

Some options include a stop at a haunted pub during the tour, and transport to and from the location can be arranged depending on which package you book. The guide speaks English and brings two decades of paranormal research directly into the conversation, not a script, but real knowledge of why these sites matter and what people have experienced there.
