Ghost-hunting with spooky tour guide Bill Spectre
LURKING beneath a veneer of majestic architecture and academic prowess, the secretive ghosts of Oxford find their homes between narrow cobbled streets and alleyways; beyond the shaded windows of old colleges and churches.
Some of them hover quietly around the vicinities of high street shops and cafes, invisible to the busy eyes of tourists and locals alike.
If you’re brave enough, your first step will be to join forces with Oxford’s dedicated ghoul seeker, Bill Spectre. Unlike the ghosts, he’s difficult to miss – dressed all in black as a Victorian undertaker, Bill begins his spook tours outside Oxford Castle Unlocked, next to the Castle Mound, on Friday and Saturday evenings. picture541
