Oh I did one years ago in york it was good we went round all the little lanes and stuff in the dark quite spooky though I didn't sleep well that night as my hotel room overlooked the tower where the walls are supposse to run with blood lol

Snap that's what I did, it was fab!

Completely O/T, but has anyone every done a ghost tour.

Never knowing what to get my OH for his birthday, at his request I have just booked to do one with him (he wouldn't do it on his own) - an all night vigil at the ruins of Alton Towers on Friday 13th and they call the tour, "Terror at the Towers".

Not sure I want to do it, as I don't like the dark, but do love watching most haunted, but that is OK as I am in the comfort of my own home, and nothing is going to get me :rotfl:

Can someone tell me it isn't going to be as bad as I think it is.

CT what a fab idea! I'd love to do one of those but anything spooky going on I wouldn't have my cushion to hide behind. I love Most Haunted too. The spookiest one I ever saw was when they were at Tilbury Fort on the Thames, Essex side. I remember going there years ago and hated the place but I couldn't have told you why tho.

Gemm - the Card Candy is from the craft shop near where I live. Don't know if you remember a while back me posting that I'd visited this shabby warehouse place near me, cos my Mum had said they had a craft section and when I went it was a huge area stocking allsorts of goodies? Well it's there, they don't do mail order though! The only reason I bought the Snowballs today was because they haven't got any in stock atm. If you want me to grab you some, let me know and I'll see what I can do. x

oh yes I do remember you told me about that place I am in no urgent need of any card candy was just interested to know where it was £1 as it's £1.50 everywhere I've seen it online!

I've done a ghost walk round York at night, about 15 years ago, I don't like scary stuff but loved this, it was really interesting.

Thanks Rainmac - I'll start to try to look forward to it, and will hope for the best. It will either kill or cure the fear I have for the dark.

Glad you had a fab day at Warwick Castle - did you get spooked by the little pixey man near the dugeons behind a large wooden door, I almost wet myself when he started talking after I had been studying him for a while (sorry probably too much info), and from then on I tried to suss the real people out before they startled you.
