Good morrow, fair visitor! My name is James Woodhouse and I am but one of fifteen Lord Mayors of York to have died in office. Every year, around the ancient feast of Samhain (summer’s end), we like to pass into the mortal world and reminisce over a spectral banquet. This year it is my turn to host, and I can’t think of a better location than the dining room of the Mansion House – a place I knew well in life. If it’s not too much trouble, I would greatly appreciate your help making the final preparations…Join us for the spooky season and work your way through our puzzling booklet, guiding you around York Mansion House. This will test the minds of all ages and is included with the price of admission.

25th October to 5th November 2023 – No need to pre-book – Included with admission – www.mansionhouseyork.com/whatson
