Brilliant evening out - Fantastic evening around Warwick with a very knowledgeable tour guide Warrane Worthington who made everyone feel welcome. He brought the stories to life and he was verry engaging and animated which was awesome. It has made us want to visit Warwick again, perhaps spending the day and then going on the Dark History Walking tour of Warwick on the evening. Tips for next time give yourself a good 25 minute to find parking as it was very busy on the carparks - we went on Wednesday night so expected it to be easier to find a space.

If you're looking for something different, interesting and a little spooky in Warwick, this is what you're looking for! - I've lived in Warwick for most of my life and never knew all of the interesting facts about my hometown! I've walked past several of the locations an innumerable amount of times without realising the history behind them. The stories were told in a gripping manner and the facts were delivered without being overwhelming (as even the most interesting history can sometimes be). Indeed I will be very wary that I don't glimpse any hellhounds! 10/10, will definitely be arranging another Tour and recommending this to others that I know.
