The Grand Theatre, Blackpool
The Frank Matcham designed Grand Theatre, Blackpool (1894) is the home of Supernatural Events’ Grand Ghost Tours. The first tour took place here on 31st October 2006, Hallowe’en, a very special occasion with 35 intrepid paranormal enthusiasts walking through the Victorian theatre in the dead of night, in total darkness (well, some did bring torches!), hearing the tales of ghostly sightings and investigating areas that the public wouldn’t normally see during the day, never mind the wee small hours around the witching hour!
Derek Acorah brought his hit television show Derek Acorah’s Ghost Towns to the theatre and during his investigation into the ghosts of the Grand, he and his co-presenters felt, heard, and experienced strange sounds, movement and sights from beyond. Now you have the chance to follow in their footsteps! Visit backstage where props have been known to move of their own accord. Sit in the darkened auditorium… if you dare!
‘I hope you enjoy your very special tour of the Grand. Maybe you will experience something from beyond, as I did with Ghost Towns. Have Fun!’ Derek Acorah
Many of those who have attended the Grand Ghost Tours at the Grand Theatre have asked if they could return to investigate what they have heard, felt or seen. Occasionally we are able to offer you the chance to do just that with our Grand Overnight Vigils which commence at 11pm and finish at 5am the following morning.
