Dive into the spine-tingling history of Chester with this in-app audio tour designed for adventure seekers and ghost story enthusiasts. By walking and listening, unfold the supernatural secrets of a Roman-walled city where each turn of the cobblestone streets reveals a narrative painted with the ghostly shades of the past. The tour begins outside the Visitor Information Centre and concludes in the historic Town Hall Square, crafting a circuit of the city's most haunted sites. As the tour guides you through the heart of Chester, experience a dramatic stroll from the majestic Town Hall and the Gothic marvel of Chester Cathedral, to ancient ruins like the Roman Amphitheatre. Along the way, visit storied pubs and charming shops where echoes of bygone eras resonate. Traverse the ancient city walls, wander beneath the timeworn Eastgate Clock, and ponder the mystery of The Anchorite Cell nestled among The Groves. Prepare to encounter the legends of Chester's spectral residents at each landmark—the tales of Roman soldiers prowling the city walls, of monks lingering in monastic corners, and poltergeists playing tricks in historic pubs.
