Two Halloween sessions of ghost stories told by storytellers about the spirits of Lydiard House, suitable for ages 10 and over.
Lydiard House Museum is hosting a night of ghost stories on Friday 30 October, with two separate sessions to choose from: 6pm to 7.30pm or 8pm to 9.30pm. Both run in the Main Hall, so if you're coming with a group, you can pick the slot that fits best.
The evening is set in the atmospheric surroundings of Lydiard House, where storytellers recount spine-tingling tales about some of the spirits reported at the estate over the centuries. It's a night built around the house's own hauntings, with the stories drawing on the ghosts that have been linked to the place over the years. Both sessions are suitable for ages 10 and over, so it works as a family outing as long as the younger ones can handle a few shivers.

Tickets are £12 per person, and that includes an arrival drink to have in hand before the storytelling starts. You'll need to book in advance through the Lydiard Park website, as there are no tickets on the door. If you're driving, the advice is to use the Hay Lane entrance to the park, which should make getting in and out a bit easier.
