Hemsökt Oxford Tour - av Uncomfortable OxfordTM
Beskrivning
Stig in i historiens skuggor och ge dig ut på en obekväm spöktur när vi får höra om händelserna som har utlöst de kusliga och djupa berättelserna om hemsökelser i Oxford. Denna tur undersöktes och utformades av två historiker som studerar historien om hemsökelser och spökhistorier, och utforskar hur vissa ögonblick lever vidare genom muntliga historier. Vår Haunted Oxford-turné fördjupar sig i strukturen av berättelser om det övernaturliga och avslöjar de oroande ögonblick från det förflutna som fortsätter att hemsöka nuet. Denna unika tur undersöker hemsökelse genom ekon av könsskillnader, förtryck, våld, social splittring och det kraftfulla greppet om minnet. Turen varar 1,5 timmar och körs i alla väder så klä dig lämpligt. Hundar välkomna.

The weather played its part in creating an atmosphere conductive to a Ghost Tour of Oxford. As we followed Jonathon down to Board Street the sky darkening in anticipation, lightening struck and thunder clapped. While the weather certainly contributed to a spooky tour, without it, it still would have been excellent. Jontahon was a brillant guide and a great stoty teller drawing us in to the conversation about the various ghosts said to haunt the streets of Oxford.
Thank you for this incredible review - what a treat of a time you got! We can't confirm or deny whether or not we have a partnership with the weather to help drive home the spooky stories ;) We hope you join us again on another tour soon!
Highly recommend this fun and thought provoking tour. Enjoyed by two families with teens. Learned more about Oxford even though we've lived here for years. Thanks to Anoushka.
Thank you so much for your kind review, and we're so glad the whole family enjoyed! We hope you join us again soon!
A thought provoking tour where we got to explore the city's dark secrets and what it might have been like in the past. Highlighted how ghost stories might have come about and why they have stayed. Left me questioning the real past of the city.
Thank you so much for this kind review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the tour and we hope you return again soon, perhaps to one of our other tours!
Enjoyable, thought provoking tour for two families with teens. Learned new things about Oxford even though we've lived here ages. Highly Recommend. Thanks to Anoushka
Thank you so much for joining us! We will pass your feedback onto the guide. Come again soon!
Had a brilliant tour with our guide Deb, interesting, fun, friendly and insightful. Thought proving chats along the way, and a great way to experience Oxford.
Thanks so much John! Join us again soon.
W enjoyed our guide Kelli so much! The tour itself is not your typical ghost tour with a lot of scary stories. So if you’re looking for that, I would keep looking. But if you’re looking for a more academic look at ghost stories and why they survive, book it.
Thanks Jill for this kind review!
Excellent tour guide customized the walk and brought great energy. Engaged with our daughter and made the experience fun.
Thanks Peter! So glad you had a great time with us.
We recently took a group of international teenage girls on the Uncomfortable Oxford Haunted Tour, and it was absolutely fantastic thanks to our brilliant guide, Devika. From the start, she had the group fully engaged. Her thoughtful questions sparked real discussion, encouraging the girls to think critically about social history, power, memory, and women’s stories so often left out. It went far beyond ghost tales and really opened their minds. Devika made every student feel heard and included. Her warmth, curiosity, and skill as a guide left a lasting impression on all of us. If you're after a meaningful, engaging tour of Oxford, we can’t recommend this one enough, especially with Devika leading.
Thank you so much for this lovely review! We are thrilled to hear you had a great experience with Devika and that your students enjoyed it as well. We hope you join us again soon!
The tour was led by a charismatic and knowledgeable guide who brought us to numerous sites where ghosts are said to haunt. He gave us the history behind the people who had died, and challenged us to speculate on how these stories may have developed or changed over time. There is lots of walking involved, so be sure to wear comfy shoes. Guaranteed to be thought-provoking, informative, and a great way to see the university and learn some urban legends. Highly recommended.
