The tour was a lot of fun! The historical facts along with the stories about haunted places and ghosts were very entertaining, interesting and educating likewise. Alan was a competent and passionate guide. Luckily we didn't encounter any paranormal activities or did we? ...maybe...

This was one of my favourite parts of my England trip! Alan was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history and ghosts of London, and was able to answer all questions I had. The pacing was good, and even though I was the only one on the tour this night, Alan's energy still made the spooky stories come alive. I highly recommend this ghost tour, I learned a lot about the city and definitely was spooked!

Spooky history

Apr 2025 • Couples

Fascinating couple of hours. Alan's stories were spooky and very well presented. Real history told with a ghostly twist that brings it to 'life'. Alan was also very knowledgable and happy to answer all our questions. As a couple of Aussie visitors we found the tour a great way to encounter a little of the darker history of London. We highly recommend this tour.

Great mix of spooky and informative

Had a great evening with our guide Alan. Alan was able to weave local folklore with historical context, really enhancing our appreciation for landmarks we visited.
You will cover a lot of stops for a 2 hour tour, bring your walking shoes and a light jacket.

Allan is very knowledgeable, very passionate about his subject, and a good tour guide. We had a great tour with him, and enjoyed his company on a lovely summer evening. He is also an author in the same genre. We will be checking out his horror novels on kindle. Thanks Allan !

Amazing experience, worth the money

The guide was amazing and very thoughtful. He took his time to get to know everyone and tried to explain everything in a very interesting way. We had a lot of fun learning about the Ghost Storys of London.

Alan is a master storyteller

Jun 2025 • Couples

Alan is a master storyteller! He took us to some interesting and somewhat off-the-beaten-path locations, buildings you might even overlook if you walked by, and transported us to another time. Alan is friendly, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about the history of the haunts he shows you. Even though sometimes the noise and crowd spillover from a nearby pub might be distracting (we were in London during an unusually warm week and lots of locals and tourists were taking advantage of it!), Alan's stories were so good, I was easily drawn back in. Highly recommend!

My two daughters and I joined Alan for the Fading Light London Ghost Walk while we vacationed in the U.K. Alan was absolutely outstanding! He is so knowledgeable that it was very impressive. He kept our attention with every step! We loved his stories about the London ghosts and all the history that went along with the tour. I highly recommend this experience! Alan is the best!

Atmospheric ghost walk

Nov 2025 • Friends

Atmospheric ghost walk with great City locations and interesting narrative. Lots of history and architecture as well as plenty of ghost stories. The Black Dog story gave me the shivers! Alan strides out fast so you need to keep up, but there are lots of stops, and he's really thoughtful at stopping where there are seats nearby. He talks fast too, but there's so much to cram in, it's a really full tour, I'd recommend it.

Excellent Guided Ghost Tour

Nov 2025 • Couples

We thoroughly enjoyed our guided walking ghost tour with Alan. He was friendly, knowledgeable and a great ghost story teller. It is not all about the ghost stories though, we learnt a lot of historical facts about this area of London some of which were a little gruesome! The tour ran on time and we found Alan easily enough at exit 1. He is thoughtful about the stops and there are normally seats to sit on at most of the locations. Alan is definitely the right person to do this guided tour with and is enthusiastic about the subject. We loved it and would recommend the tour and him without hesitation.

We had the most wonderful evening guided by Alan through the streets of London. He provided great knowledge on areas of London as well as been a really friendly chap. We felt the fee for the tour was very reasonable priced for 2 hours.

One thing we would recommend is to bring extra layers if it’s cold as you stop for periods of time where it can be windy and we got quite chilly.
