Ghost Hunt at The Cromwell Hotel, Stevenage.

Once a humble farmhouse, this building was owned by John Thurloe, secretary to Oliver Cromwell. A foundation stone, dated 1667, still rests in the fireplace of Cromwell’s Bar, though much of the building’s history remains cloaked in shadows and unanswered questions.

For centuries, whispers of the unexplained have clung to these walls. Guests and staff have reported objects moving on their own, lights flickering in the dead of night, televisions switching themselves on, and hangers rattling as if unseen hands roam the wardrobes. Chilling drops in temperature, ghostly children’s laughter echoing through empty corridors, and mysterious noises from the cellar have all left even the bravest hearts racing. Some say the house remembers its past… and its past is far from at rest.

The experience begins at 7:30 pm and lingers until 1:30 am. Tea, coffee, and snacks will be available throughout the night—though no refreshment can ward off what may be waiting in the shadows.
