About

Ye Wise Olde Witch has cast a spell over York Attractions Week, and for one week only, her tolls are halved.

Follow Ragnell Hagathorn from St. Helen's Square and into the haunted streets beyond, where Twilight Tales of witches, ghosts and monsters await those brave enough to join the darksome adventure! Ninety minutes of theatrical storytelling, folklore and a fright or two along the way.

From Wednesday 19 to Sunday 23 August only: £7.50 for adults, £3.75 for children and concessions, half the usual toll.

Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult at all times during the walk. Ye have been warned.
