Full description

You arrive at New Street Station and feel an icy chill. A Victorian ghost tells you the souls of Birmingham's workers are trapped beneath the city, and you're fading too. Find letters hidden across town and complete an invocation before it's too late.

Follow restless spirits through 10 haunted locations, from a station built over a disturbed cemetery to a secret tunnel, a cellar where rioters burned alive, and a cathedral where a statue comes to life. Decode ciphers and free the souls before you vanish.

Download the Questo app, activate your quest with the booking code, and start playing at New Street Station. No guide, no schedule, best played after dark.

Discover Birmingham's darkest stories: a hidden tomb of 1,163 bodies beneath a convention centre, the city's last public hanging, and a mayor whose ghost still haunts his office surrounded by fresh flowers.

Perfect for ghost story lovers and puzzle solvers. About 50 minutes, 10 stops through haunted Birmingham.
