Overview

Your host will be the Rev. Joseph Glanvill, Vicar of Frome, a world-renowned expert in witch-finding. He died in 1680, but will return to show you the places where the ghosts of Frome lurk.

You'll hear about the 12 men who were hanged, drawn and quartered - and whose cries can still be heard.

You'll hear talk of apparitions in Frome's network of medieval tunnels.

And you'll be walking past ancient pubs whose cellars make people feel unsettled and nervous.

For 1,300 years Frome has seen struggle and death, ghosts and ghouls. They're all around us, if you let yourself hear them.

The tour is mostly pavement, but our route will include some steep cobbled streets.

We meet at Christchurch Cemetery, Christ Church, Christchurch Street West, Frome BA11 1EH.
Please arrive at least 5 minutes early. The tour will start promptly for the convenience of our guests.
Look out for your guide, the Revd Joseph Glanvill, who will be bewigged and wearing clerical robes.
