At Terrible Tours we think the best way to learn is to laugh. And that’s usually about stories and people rather than architecture and dates, and above all about what’s odd, funny, grisly, or smelly and generally revolting!
What do you get if you take 2000 years of history, add lashings of ancient buildings, and mix in some of the world’s most colourful characters? A city that’s ‘alive’ with ghosts – that’s what! Meet the victims of horrific punishments, see the hangman’s house, visit one of the most haunted roads in England, and hear the chilling tales of phantom Fellows and spooky Scholars that haunt the city.
Norwich has a long and turbulent history - home to invading Saxons, Normans before rising to become one of the wealthiest cities in England and second only to London. Norwich has been the site of horrific plagues, witch hunts and burnings of 'heretics' and rebels. What can you expect from a city whose most famous street is 'Tombland'!
Hear the whole story of Norwich. From scary Saxons, vile Vikings and nasty Normans, through Peasant rebellions, witch hunts, Plague and more! If you want a long talk about different types of church arches we are not for you - if you want to learn by laughing we are!
