What a fun evening! Raising the neck hairs with creepy tales in the true Victorian tradition, well researched by Liah. A great way to see iconic views of Scarborough and share in its spooky history

Great Tour!
Excellent guide who really knows her stuff, learnt a lot about the dark side of Scarborough
and the town itself. Delivered in a fun, theatrical way and dressed the part too. Would highly
recommend.

Enjoyable walk with spooky tales
Great entertainment the black widow managed to give us an insight to macabre with
passion and humour. Fantastic local knowledge and left us with some great places to visit
the following day. Would really recommend this trip
Folklore and ghosts of Scarborough
She is a wonderful storyteller and has vast local knowledge.
A very entertaining evening.
The tour was wheelchair friendly and she set a gentle pace as one of our group has to use a stick. Short stops for each story, and some interesting locations.
