View allAbout This Event
Gruesome, Ghastly Guildford takes place on 27 October 2026 at Tunsgate Arch in Guildford. This exhibition explores tales of royal betrayals, witchcraft, plague, prison and public executions that shaped the town.
From royal betrayals and witchcraft, to plague, prison & public executions - hear the grisly tales that shaped Guildford.
Warning: some stories contain mature themes & not recommended for children under 12yrs
Guildford has the reputation of being rather prim and proper, even slightly dull. However on this walk, we aim to bring to light some of the unsavoury events in our history: the stinks and smells, murder, witchcraft and other crimes, the cruel punishments, and a massacre.
Be ready to be shocked!
