Hide AdThe route will pass through darkened cemeteries, abandoned railways and derelict buildings, and end with an evening at the pub.
Organiser and manager of the Old Cherry Tree Teresa Shaw said: "Walkers should be prepared for a scare. A man with a chainsaw has been spotted across the field near the derelict building. A haunted train has been seen on the old railroad tracks, and a witch could be stirring her cauldron near St Mary's Church. Be ready for some scary moments on this ghoulish route.
"The Old Cherry Tree will be decorated up to the nines for after the ghost walk. We're really pleased to be holding this event for the local church."
