Ghost Stories from Wymering Manor

Step across the threshold of Hampshire’s most haunted house! From phantom horsemen and spectral choirs to echoes of ancient Tudor betrayal, Wymering Manor is teeming with restless spirits. Plunge into nearly a thousand years of history at Portsmouth’s oldest recorded house, uncovering true tales of spectres and shades, and shiver at the eerie encounters that command these ancient halls after dark.

Unlike other ghost tours, we bring you the genuine hangman’s humour of history through its myths and legends. Our storytellers will guide you through the Manor's dark, wood-panelled rooms and forbidden corridors, dodging shadows at every turn. Uncover ghostly tales, like the haunting of the notorious Blue Room, the phantom child on the stairs, and the spirits from its days as a church college and a youth hostel. Along the way, we'll discover the scientific side of paranormal occurrences through centuries-old stories.

Join our darkly humorous ghost tour in the heart of a deeply haunted manor; together we'll explore the creaking floorboards, learn a little, laugh a little, but scream a lot!
