UNLOCK THE SPIRITS OF THE TOWER'S PAST THIS HALLOWEEN!

21 - 29 October 2023

This October half term the Tower of London is hosting a Halloween event to entertain the whole family!

The following description, from the Tower of London website, certainly makes it sound like an event worth visiting: keep your wits about you and your sense on alert. With a thousand years of history housed within the Tower's walls, can you find spirits of the past this Halloween?

As you make your way through the Tower, you might find a wisp of white sweeping by you on the stairs, or the trail of a Tudor gown swishing past a doorway.

Catch sight of a medieval queen upon a crooked throne, spot a Roman soldier near the remnants of the London Wall, or glimpse the Wizard Earl concocting potions in his apothecary.

A ruined garden in the shadow of the White Tower hints at a lost palace that once stood there. Now with its gnarly roots, decaying walls and barred windows, it contains spirits waiting to be stirred.

This is a family-friendly adventure designed to spook, but not to terrify. Pick up a trail when you arrive and keep track of the ghosts that you spot on your visit.

And remember, you may see them, but they will not see you…

Event organiser is Historic Royal Palaces.
