East Dean Halloween Ghost Walk
A guided evening walk around East Dean with your guide Larry, sharing stories of the village's ghosts and smugglers: the Black Monk who is said to lure people to their deaths at Beachy Head, the headless smuggler who appears on the trail during and shortly after a harvest moon, and the ghostly cries of the condemned smugglers. Meet in the overflow car park opposite East Dean & Friston Village Hall at 6:45pm (what3words ///coder.proves.deposits); the walk starts promptly at 7pm, takes about 90 minutes and covers about 1.2 miles at a moderate pace. Places are limited to 10, so booking is recommended, via the website or by email. Sturdy footwear and warm clothing are a must: the route mixes pavements, unpaved paths, residential roads, grass verges and a path with a steep descent, and there is a stile to climb. Joining the walk is at participants' own risk.
