Things that go bump in the day
Street images from my recent “spook-cation” in York, described as the most haunted city in England. A few days well spent devouring Yorkshire pudding wraps, mingling my camera with the tourists and waiting for my beer to float across the bar in the Golden Fleece. (Spoiler…didn’t happen!)
Highlights include a dark tour of deathly tales with stories of the monstrous Barghest beast and the chilling tear-streaked girl of “plague house,” who taps on the window at passersby. Sleep well, eh! I also learn’t a Snickelway is not a northern chocolate bar crammed with peanuts. We couldn’t end our trip without popping by the Yorkshire Ghost Merchants, for our very own ghost, each comes complete with a spirit of their own.
York is a place I need to return. There’s definitely a strong image theme brewing for a future zine.
