Ghost Stories from Titchfield Abbey

Book your place on the Abbey Tour

Date: Wednesday 01 April, 2026

Time: 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Location: Titchfield Abbey

Ticket Price: £15 - £7.00

Ghost stories, phantom monks, legendary beasts, plague victims, and Tudor persecution! Journey through over 800 years of history at Titchfield Abbey, uncovering true tales of spectres and shades, and shiver at the eerie events that come to life after dark.

Unlike typical ghost walks, we serve up the genuine hangman’s humour of history. Explore the dark and forbidden past of the Abbey with our storytellers as we dodge shadows at every corner. You'll discover how a sacred home for "White Canons" was transformed into a grand Tudor mansion by a ruthless courtier, uncover the origins of local legends, and explore the scientific side of ghostly happenings passed down through the centuries.

Join a darkly humorous tour in the heart of these haunted ruins. Together we'll walk the grounds, learn a little, laugh a little—but scream a lot!
