The Highgate Society will launch the Highgate Village History and Mystery audio tour with collaboration from Voice Map. It will guide visitors from Highgate Cemetery to Lauderdale House, featuring local history intertwined with ghost stories. A script was crafted over 50 hours, emphasizing historical figures and spectral tales, including the story of Mother Marnes, a ghost said to haunt a theatre. Engaging soundscapes enhance the visitor experience, making use of local lore to create an immersive journey.
The tour starts outside Highgate Cemetery's neo-gothic western entrance and takes the tourist through leafy parkland to Lauderdale House, up the historic high street, and into the heart of the village.
Stories, true or not, of 'pretty, witty' Nell Gwynn, philanthropists, writers, highwaymen and ghosts will keep you company along the way.
Deborah added: 'We make the most of our Highgate ghosts, with some good ones at the Flask and Gatehouse pubs.'
She has also added sound effects, explaining: 'When people walk up a stretch where there's not a lot of particular things to enjoy, it enhances their experience.'
