BRING YOUR BABY

You are welcome to bring friends and family who do not also have a baby.
Walk starts and ends: Hampstead tube station, Hampstead High Street, London NW3
Settle your nerves with a stop after about an hour at The Old White Bear pub for refreshment and/or lunch and baby change.

What you’ll see and hear about on this walk:
- Several pubs which play host to numerous entities from the other side - a former landlord, a wife who was bricked up in the cellar by her own husband, a phantom waitress, and a jazz musician who doesn’t seem to want to leave his piano...
- The ghosts of a young girl scared to death by own dentist, and a murderous maidservant who witnesses hear shuffling along the street behind them.
- The churchyard which inspired scenes from Bram Stoker’s “Dracula”.
- The former inn on the edge of Hampstead Heath which also featured in “Dracula”, once visited by Charles Dickens and which at once time displayed ‘artefacts' from the hangings of highwaymen and murderers at the nearby “Gibbet Elm Trees”.
- Tales of the many highwaymen who haunted the Heath in life… and in death. Some were celebrities in their own time, like Dick Turpin, still haunting the nearby Spaniards Inn (not on this walk due to road safety constraints) and the famously polite Claude Duval. Many were caught… and met their end hanging from the gibbet on the Heath.
- The original houses which were home to many writers associated with tales of the macabre or sinister: Daphne du Maurier (“The Birds” / “Rebecca”), H.G. Wells (“The Invisible Man’ / “War of the Worlds”) and Robert Louis Stevenson (“Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde”).
- The 17th century statesman who who was arrested at his Hampstead home and beheaded at Tower Hill.
- And aptly, the gothic mansion belonging to Boy George.
