On the hunt for things that go bump in the night? Luckily for you, our city is home to some seriously spooky events come the 31st of October, which makes sense considering the iconic university itself was built on the site of a Medieval hospital that had to be closed down, and has seen plenty of reported spirit sightings over the years. So, from haunted club parties to blood-curdling quirky events, we've handpicked the cream of the hellish crop. Check out our guide to the best Halloween events in Cambridge below.

After Cambridge Halloween events for kids? Then check out Sticks 'n' Sushi's offering, where your little ones can get involved in a themed cooking masterclass. This is aimed at ages seven to 13, guided by expert chefs and suitable for all abilities.
They'll get involved in preparing, rolling and, of course, eating their very own sushi, ranging from hosomaki rolls to nigiri. Plus, they'll leave with a bandana and a certificate to take home.
