Haunted High Street Ghost Walk Brings Cambridge’s Folklore to Life After Dark
A guided nighttime walking experience through Cambridge is offering visitors a themed exploration of Haunted High Street, a historic route known for its folklore, preserved architecture, and long-standing local legends.
The tour includes twelve storytelling stops featuring accounts drawn from historical records and regional folklore collections. Guides recount tales of soldiers, merchants, sailors, governors, and families whose stories remain tied to the town’s past and are said to echo through its streets.
As participants move through the neighbourhood, the atmosphere shifts with stories linked to churches, courthouses, wharves, museums, and some of the oldest homes in the area. These narratives focus on historical memory and emotional connection rather than traditional horror themes.
Organisers describe the experience as an atmospheric blend of history and storytelling, offering visitors a reflective look at the town’s heritage after dark. The walk highlights how local legends continue to shape Cambridge’s identity and cultural imagination.

Customer Reviews
Thanks Peter for all your efforts and information on the tour. Great to learn so much about my hometown on the tour. Lots of great little nuggets of info. The only thing I would say is it could be made a bit more humourous and cheeky (inline with the inferred link to Horrible Histories etc).
I decided to get a Terrible Tours ticket for Halloween night, and the Ghost Tour around Cambridge did not disappoint. Our tour guide, David, was very entertaining and knowledgeable about the history of Cambridge and its many paranormal occurances. The length of the tour was also ideal and it never felt like I was getting bored or tired. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in paranormal activities and learning about Cambridge. Although it did rain during the tour, it added some atmospheric ambience to the tour.
Excellent 90 minutes of Cambridges terrible history (and dad jokes). A great way to spend an evening, learning some of the creepier, lesser known facts, about Cambridge, it's colleges and it's history. Peter was the perfect guide, knowledgeable, funny and well versed in the darker, spookier side of Cambridge đź‘Ť
