Family Ghost Tours at The Historic Dockyard Chatham

The Historic Dockyard Chatham, Kent, ME4 4TZ

28th October - 1st November

Families and young ghost hunters can grab a torch and step into the dark for a special after-hours adventure at The Historic Dockyard Chatham this October Half Term.

Once the site closes to the public for the day, visitors will be led on an atmospheric, torch-lit tour around the venue’s historic buildings.

Led by an enthusiastic guide, the experience introduces guests to the mischievous spirits, shadowy ships, and lingering ghosts of the Dockyard’s past. Packed with eerie stories, subtle scares, and plenty of laughs, the event is tailored specifically for younger audiences looking for a fun, spine-tingling evening outing.

Ghost hunters are encouraged to keep their eyes peeled throughout the tour, because at the Dockyard after dark, you never know who might be watching from the shadows.
