Been on a few in York. Love them. We are going there in a couple of week so of course a ghost walk will be on the menu. Will have to find a child friendly one though as we are taking our little grandson. We did find one once when we went so hopefully she will be there again. Had a funny monkey in a pram the kids loved it. Germaine x

Have been on Mary Kings Close tour, was great plenty of history added in. Really fancy going on one in York and Jack the Ripper tour sounds good too!

Oooh yes, in Edinburgh about 10 years ago. Can still remember the wonderful tale of the Earl of Drumlanrigg............

Hi I've been to Mary King's Close in Edinburgh a few times and also one that walks around the street's and goes down the Vaults. A lot depends on the tour guide and who you go with but I've found that the guide do know there stuff. The Vaults are scary! Carole

When i went on the Edinburgh ghost walk it was dark and pouring of rain.Must admit i was a bit edgey around the cemetery.When i woke up next morning i had 3 scratches in the middle of my back.Was warned before we went into a tomb that we might get attacked and thought they were joking? Annie

I went on a Jack the Ripper walk after seeing The Woman In Black at the Fortune Theatre which was given by an ex-policeman who had written some Ripper books. I really enjoyed it. Lorrainex
