Ghost Walk of the Lanes will take you and your party on a spooky walk around Brighton’s Lanes. The tour lasts 80 minutes and visits eight haunted locations in the area. There’s no need to book, just assemble outside The Druids Head to be collected by a shadowy figure dressed in funeral director attire, also known as Rob Miles, the actor who plays Silas the Ghostwalker. The tour is also fantastic for historians who are interested in learning more about Brighton’s checkered history of smugglers and pirates. Put the Ghost Walk on your Halloween wishlist, it is simply unmissable. Ghostwalkbrighton.co.uk
