Entry is £3.00 for adults and £2.00 for children. Price includes a guided tour.

Derby Friar Gate Ghost Walk
This walk starts and finishes at The Derby Gaol, On your way round you will hear stories of murders, ex*****ons, crime, punishment and ghostly occurrences.

We start with a brief tour of the Gaol, and continue the walk up to Derby’s 3rd and last County Prison on Vernon Gate visiting the ex*****on room and the very haunted tower. We then walk down Agard Street to hear the story of the murder of Eliza Morrow and the last public ex*****on in Derbyshire before returning to our Gaol for a Condemned Man’s Supper.

Then unlike so many that have been in the Gaol before, you will be permitted to go home!

Walks last approximately 3 hours, starting at 7pm and finishing around 10pm.
