Your Experience
Find out why York is called the most haunted city in Europe in this self-guided exploration game. The Veil, an ancient barrier that keeps York's restless dead at bay, is failing, and its keeper Elspeth Crowe has vanished into the mist. As a paranormal investigator, follow her trail from Clifford's Tower through the medieval snickelways past the Treasurer's House and York Minster, and seal the breach before the dead rise.
Along the way you solve challenges in the Questo app, learn historical facts and local myths, and discover hidden spots that only locals know and most tourists pass by. The walk covers about 2 km and takes around 1 hour, with no time limit.
Will you mend the Veil before the dead rise unbound?
