SUMMARY:Skipton Ghost Cruise
DESCRIPTION:A brand‑new visitor experience has launched in Skipton this October, bringing the town’s ghost stories, folklore and darker history to life in a completely new way — on the water.\nThe Skipton Ghost Cruise is a collaboration between two award‑winning local attractions, Skipton Boat Trips and Yorkshire Ghost Tours. Taking place aboard Skipton Boat Trips’ Cobbydale, this one‑hour cruise blends live theatre, storytelling and atmospheric history as you travel along the Leeds & Liverpool Canal.\nWhat to Expect\nPassengers are joined by a professional character guide from Yorkshire Ghost Tours, who performs live throughout the journey. Instead of recorded commentary, guests enjoy an engaging mix of:\n\nLocal folklore and eerie tales\nGruesome and darker moments from Skipton’s past\nUnexplained happenings\nStories of characters connected to the town and surrounding area\n\nThe cruise departs from Skipton’s historic canal basin and returns approximately one hour later.\nFamily Information\nThe experience is designed to be atmospheric and entertaining rather than a full horror attraction, combining history, theatre and dark Yorkshire humour. Children are welcome when accompanied by an adult, though some stories include ghosts, crime, death and other darker themes. Selected Halloween sailings include a small bag of sweets for younger passengers.\nTickets & Booking\n\nAdults (13+): £17.95\nChildren (1–12): £13.95\nLocation: Skipton Boat Trips, 3 Coach Street, Skipton, BD23 1LH\n\nEarly demand has been strong, with two Halloween sailings selling out within the first 48 hours of tickets being released.\nBook Your Cruise\nFind out more and secure your tickets: https://www.canaltrips.co.uk/skipton-ghost-cruise/\n
