Haunted Walkies: The Best Spooky Dog Walks in the UK

It’s that time of year again where the leaves are falling, and the phantoms are calling. Yes, it’s Howl-oween! And what better way to get into the spirit than going on some spook-tacular walks with your paw-some pup? So, put on your walking boots, grab your pup’s lead, and let’s dive into the most haunted walkies in the UK.

Pluckley Village, Kent

Known as the most haunted village in England, Pluckley is a must-visit. Boasting up to 16 different haunts, you can saunter through the “Screaming Woods” where the ghosts of woodland wanderers are rumoured to reside. Just keep that leash tight, you never know who (or what) you might bump into!

Cannock Chase, Staffordshire

Fancy a spook in the woods? Cannock Chase is where it’s at. Home to the infamous “Black-Eyed Child,” these woods offer an eerie yet picturesque walking experience. The towering trees create a dark, enchanting atmosphere that’ll give you both chills and thrills.

The Tower of London, London

Ah, the iconic Tower Bridge! Not only is it steeped in history, but it’s also said to be haunted by the ghosts of workers who died during its construction. Walk along the elevated walkways and you might encounter more than just fantastic views of London. Visitors have reported feeling tugs at their clothing, seeing shadowy figures, and even feeling weighed down by an inexplicable force. One recent account spoke of a young woman so unnerved by the angry spirit she encountered that she fled the premises! Dogs are welcome on the bridge! So you can both feel the chills as you walk across this monumental structure.

Pendle Hill, Lancashire

Ah, the home of the famous Witch Trials of 1612. This hill offers an absolutely paw-stounding view, but that’s not all it’s known for. The area is said to be filled with the spirits of the wrongly accused witches, making for a bewitching walk for you and your furry furiend.

Greyfriars Kirkyard, Edinburgh

Step onto Scottish soil and explore the spookiest graveyard in Edinburgh. Famous for the story of Greyfriars Bobby, the loyal Skye Terrier who guarded his owner’s grave for 14 years, this place is perfect for a creepy stroll. But beware, the Mackenzie Poltergeist is known to roam these grounds. Keep an eye out for flying orbs!

Berry Pomeroy Castle, Devon

Nothing says haunted like an abandoned castle, right? Berry Pomeroy Castle is a dream for those looking for an atmospheric walk. Rumour has it that the Blue Lady haunts the tower, luring people to their doom. This could be a paw-fect photo op, but maybe don’t go climbing any towers, okay?

Whether you’re in for the haunt or just the jaunt, these walks will give you and your doggie something to howl about this Halloween!

Howl-o-ween or not, always remember to keep your dogs leashed, and maybe carry some extra treats…for courage, of course!

Happy Haunting!
