Enter the Guildhall after dark for a lantern-lit evening of spooky tales and a Yuletide tipple by the fire in the great hall.

The chilling Christmas tradition continues with new stories and parlour games for 2026

In the days before television families and groups of friends made the most of the long dark nights over Christmas by gathering together to share ghost stories.

Reignite the tradition this year with host Charles Dickens, mixologist and teller Thursday and a special guest storyteller in the atmospheric surroundings of the Great Hall and Mayor's Parlour at Leicester's Medieval Guildhall

An interactive evening of chilling tales for Christmas served with a festive twist

So gather your friends and loved ones, and embrace the dark side of the Festive season with a dash of holiday cheer
