Overview

Meet the Butcher by the Castle Gates and keep your wits about you as she guides you around the famously haunted streets of medieval Skipton. A town full of history, there's something for everyone here. Tourists and Skipton residents alike are likely to fall in love with the town for all its ghastly ghouls. Learn about haunted pubs, churchyards, canals, and of course, the castle. This tour celebrates Skipton's residents throughout the years: Kings, Queens, Knights, witches, peasants, butchers, and of course... sheep! The tour has been praised for being appropriate for people from all walks of life, young and old. Everyone loves a good ghost story, after all... From the creators of the appraised Otley Ghost Tour, double the spirit with Turnip Fish Theatre Company's second ghost tour. Does Skipton really contain a ghost in every building...? Book your tickets now to find out!

    Look out for a drunken old lady and her little dog, Tag, as you traverse Thanet's Canal.

    10 minutes

  • N/A

    Discover Skipton's witches and magical trees...

    5 minutes

  • N/A

    The word 'skip' in old english translates to 'scaep', meaning 'sheep', so we could go around calling it 'sheepton', but we won't.

    5 minutes

  • N/A

    The butcher will end her tour underneath one of Skipton's lovely linden trees. It's prohibited to tell a lie underneath one of those, so give The Butcher your honest review about her tour, but expect the truth in return...

Creepy, amusing and informative!

Published on May, 2025

Our Butcher was excellent - creepy, amusing and informative! She kept us all fully engaged with her tales of creepiness and added lovely little details which also made us laugh out loud at times! We would thoroughly recommend the Skipton Ghost Walking Tour, as it was the perfect way to really get under the skin of the town and find out what makes it tick!

Excellent

Geweldige unieke spooktocht

Published on Mar, 2025

I came all the way from Holland to experience the ghost tour in Skipton and enjoyed it immensely! The butcher spoke with great humor and was good in her role. My compliments to her! She also involved everyone which is not easy with a group of 19 people. I recommend this ghost tour to anyone who wants to learn more about Skipton in a special way.

Great evening very entertaining and enjoyable
