Explore with our Medieval Monk Mort, apprentice to the grim reaper. There are shadows on every corner to be explored as we uncover the ghostly tales of York, uncover its gruesome murders, hear tales of legendary beasts, plague victims and persecution. York has a devilishly dark and occasionally bloody history leaving shadows on every corner.

Battles, Devils and heads on spikes all conjure up a devilishly devious side of a city risen on the bodies of the dead! Suddenly as night arrives this beautiful city reveals its hidden secrets. Follow Mort down its dark snickleways as he beguiles you with tales that curdle the blood. Stay close, don't stray from the paths!
