Can I just give a huge 'THANK YOU' to the group from Sunday night. It was a pretty big crowd, but about 20 minutes from the end...the heavens opened! However, they almost all stayed with me to the end! I tried upping my walking pace to shake them off, but to no avail. The star of the show was, of course, the lightning. So, if Wincey Willis or Thomas Shuffleknacker can sort out similar atmospheric conditions for my Dracula walk every week, I would be most grateful. (It's Tuesday now and I'm still a bit soggy).

New board time! My old ones are now a bit 'passed it'. What do you think?

This young chap has been on my Ghost walk quite a few times. In fact, he even has his own 'Doctor Crank Ghost walk stick'! I was extremely honoured when he asked me to sign his stick for him. This stick will now give him full protection against evil spells. I also presented him with a 'Doctor Cranks Whitby Ghost Walk ' pen. I've a feeling he could be my apprentice in a few years!
(By the way, the original picture was a bit grainy, so I've cleaned it up a bit. The A.I. has changed my mush a bit. I'm actually much more handsome than this....)

A curse of a thousand Whitby Weasels on you. You know who you are....the crowd from last night's walk. Not one of you had the decency to tell me I'd been targeted by the thieving chip robbers last night.
Still, they do say, 'poo for luck!' So, looking forward to a good crowd tonight!

I've been creeping around Whitby, nattering about the Count for quite a while now, but tonight's walk was one of the best, without a doubt!
When the group are as daft as this lot, it makes my job so much easier.
Polish, American, Dutch, just a great group of Drac fans!
I've given more Doctor Cranks ghost walk pens away tonight than I've sold!
Thanks again, you lot...

Morning all! I get asked quite often, 'Do you sell mementos of your walk?' Well, I'm starting! Easing in with these little beauties.
They write really well, feel great in the hand and come in a classic black felt bag.
Blood red or Bat black. Best bit is...the price! Just £2 each!
If you come on the walk and you want to give a present from Whitby to someone you know who is a bit weird...just the thing!
(I know one looks a bit pink, but it's definitely red!)

Once again, after tonight's walk, I was chatting to a family that had an encounter with something unusual. They didn't want me to go into details here, but I have actually heard the same experience from other people in the same place.
This got me to thinking, because so many people tell me of their strange experiences in Whitby, maybe I should put them on this page. Obviously, it would be with their permission.
So, if you have encountered anything a little unusual in Whitby, and you don't mind letting people know, send me an Email, ([email protected]), with the information, and I'll see if I can get to the bottom of these happenings!

I had the pleasure of attending the Scarborough Ghost Walk a couple of days ago. Most entertaining! Same as my walk, we visited parts of the town people rarely go to, and it seems Scarborough is riddled with spooks!
Great stories told with aplomb.

Did a private walk for a lady last night. If everyone was as delightful as her, my job would be a lot easier!
Interested, but also interesting.
