Join us for a night to freeze the blood as we step into the world of Gothic literature in an after-dark tour of Chawton House
Are you brave enough to visit Chawton House after dark?
Join us for a night to freeze the blood as we step into the world of Gothic literature, where innocent heroines are held captive in mouldering castles by terrifying villains, and the ingenious women writers who breathed life into them await your presence.
Enjoy the atmospheric surroundings of Chawton House, and learn the secrets of the house, the portraits, and the books within. Be on the lookout for ghostly apparitions and veiled mysteries as we shine our lanterns into the darkness.
Arrival: 6:30, tour starts at 7:00pm
£15 (includes a Gothic cocktail/mocktail on arrival)
