After-dark gaol ghost tour at the National Justice Museum - 14+, about an hour.

Ghosts of the Gaol is an after-dark tour of the old gaol at the National Justice Museum. Saturdays 19 and 26 September, 3, 10 and 17 October, then 14 and 21 November 2026. Pick 6pm or 7pm; about an hour. 14+ only; under-18s need an adult with them. From £15 concessions, £16 full price. Optional arrival drink (£4-£5) if you want one waiting. Wrap up warm and wear comfortable shoes - it can be cold in the prison. This is not the Kids' Ghost Hunter tour, and it is not a soft-play outing.
