Autumn activities at Oxford Castle Quarter
Ghost fest
This October, Ghost Fest will be arriving at Oxford Castle and Prison! If you’re ready for a scare, join a spooky tour through Oxford Castle and Prison’s 1000-year past and let the gruesome history come to live. For only £19 per person, you can scare yourself silly on a guided tour of the haunted castle and wait for the ghosts to reveal themselves! If you’d rather create creepy concoctions and putrid potions, the potion making activity is the one for you. Join resident Warlock in the Castle crypt for a fantastic potions experience, where you’ll learn how to make three disgusting distillations.
