My friends and I went to hear the ghost stories. we enjoyed the tour except that we would have liked a book or leaflet on the ghost stories, which was not available. I asked afterwards and was told that they had been collected by employees. it would be nice to be able to read about the various ghosts of the castle on the Web or in a book/leaflet. We also felt that the employees should have learnt the stories (as actors) as reading from typed information on paper did not seem to work as it did not make the tour 'spooky'. In fact we did not feel scared at all. the Musician who played the traditional instruments from Tudor times was excellent and well worth the price.
