Liverpool’s Most Famous Historic Ghost Walk!

The Hope Street Shivers experience was the first ghost tour in Liverpool & won ‘Guided Tour of the Year’ at the National Tourism Awards with VisitEngland.

The Tour begins outside the historic Philharmonic Pub in the heart of Liverpool’s Cathedral Quarter…

This experience takes in both of the city’s striking Cathedrals, the crooked smile of Rodney Street and the mysterious story of Will McKenzie’s blackened pyramid tomb. Bare witness to the faded grandeur of the old Wellington Rooms and the shadowy opulence of the City’s Georgian Old Town.

Your guides will conclude the tour beneath the Gothic majesty of Liverpool’s Anglican Cathedral in St James’ Cemetery; the City’s former Necropolis, resting place for nearly 60,000 souls (where for over a hundred years something sinister has lurked)

Popular with all age groups The Hope Street Shivers appeals to families, friends looking for something different to enjoy together, it’s a great alternative for a team building activity or indeed a romantic scare for two – this experience has something for everyone.
