About
Halloween Aboard The Golden Hinde is a special Halloween experience exploring the beliefs, fears and folklore of the Tudor world, from witches and strange charms to sailors' superstitions and ghostly legends. It is run by The Golden Hinde and begins with an interactive talk in the Great Cabin, where curious objects bring strange stories and superstitions to life. Visitors then tour the rest of the Tudor galleon above and below deck, hearing legends of Sir Francis Drake such as Drake's Drum and darker tales including the trial and execution of Thomas Doughty. They also get a closer look at objects and traditions once believed to offer protection against supernatural forces, including witch marks, witch bottles, hagstones and the origins of the Jack O' Lantern.
