Join Dark History UK and Spooky Jo for a fascinating and spine-chilling journey through the darker side of history at The Herbert Art Gallery & Museum.
Forget the usual museum tour; this is an evening of real history, real people and the morbid and macabre stories hiding behind the exhibits.
Discover the story of the skull in the hat box, hear about the shadows of the Medieval Undercroft, and uncover the chilling tale of the ghost of the gallery. Find out why Elizabeth I is crying in the Old Masters Gallery, and delve into many more strange, unsettling and fascinating stories from Coventry's past.
As we explore the museum by torchlight, you'll discover the people, events and dark history behind the stories, separating the facts from the folklore along the way, after the public has left.
If you love morbid history, macabre tales, ghosts and the darker side of the past, this is one tour you won't want to miss.
Turn off the lights. Pick up a torch. And prepare to see The Herbert in a whole new way…
Are you brave enough to join us after dark?
