Ghost-ridden tours are being organised by Nantwich Museum to add to the town’s spooky Halloween celebrations.
The ‘Nantwich Hallowe’en Ghost Trails’ will be led by Richard and Lyn Gumm, actors who have regularly appeared on TV and in films.
Most recently, Lyn appeared in ‘Dr Who’, while Richard appeared in the ‘Darkest Hour’ – an account of Winston Churchill’s early days as Prime Minister.
Tours are being run, 7pm-8.30pm on Saturday October 27 and Wednesday October 31.
The cost is £4 per person (£3 for Museum Members).
‘Spooky and Sparkly Craft Workshops’ for children will take place during half-term on October 31 and November 1.
There will be the opportunity to make spooky Hallowe’en and sparkly Bonfire Night crafts.
The workshops are ‘drop-in’ from 11am to 3pm.
The cost is £2 per child and large groups must book in advance. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
