Halloween
Are you ready for the spooky and scary this Halloween? Discover what’s happening at JORVIK and our sister attraction, Barley Hall, this October.
Halloween is always something special in York — and this year promises to be no exception! With its rich history and dark past, the city is the perfect place for spine-chilling stories and eerie encounters.
While JORVIK is currently safe from malevolent spirits, thanks to the watchful eye of Odin, we have heard some worrying rumours from our sister attraction, Barley Hall…
Figures are said to roam the halls, screams have been heard from empty rooms and more than one person has reported feeling watched. We have our theories about what is going on, but we need an extra set of hands.
One thing’s certain: this Halloween is going to be hair-raising fun for all ages!
Did you know that York is said to sit on a paranormal nexus, a place where the boundary between our world and the spirit world is at its thinnest? For reasons no one can explain, those boundaries have weakened even further, and the spirits of York’s past have descended upon Barley Hall.
For the safety of our guests, Barley Hall has been temporarily closed while our paranormal investigators work to contain the outbreak. Will you be brave enough to join them?
Barley Hall has stood on this site for more than 600 years — plenty of time for whispers, secrets and restless spirits to seep into its ancient walls.
They say old houses remember the past. Perhaps they do, with their stories lingering in the silence… until now. Waiting for someone willing to listen.
Join Edwyrdian Tales for an unforgettable evening of haunting storytelling as the darker chapters of Barley Hall’s past unfold.
