An adults-only ghost tour of Brighton's wartime air-raid shelter, hearing untold stories of those who sought shelter.
Take Shelter - Ghostly Tales from the Darkness is an adults-only ghost tour of one of Brighton's wartime air-raid shelters, running on Saturday 31 October. It's a Halloween night outing, and the whole thing takes place at Downs Junior School on Rugby Road, BN1 6ED.
The tour is built around the shelter itself, a space that once held people during the Blitz, and the stories that still cling to it. You'll be hearing untold tales of the people who sought cover there, the kind of local history that doesn't always make it into the textbooks. It's an adults-only walk, so it's geared towards an older crowd rather than families with kids.
Because it's a ghost tour, the focus is on the atmosphere of the place and the stories told within it, rather than a standard historical tour. It's a night for anyone who likes their local history with a bit of a chill to it, and since it falls on Halloween, it fits the mood of the city that night.
