Most City of London tours that mention Freemasonry do it the same way: a knowing look, a locked door, "we can't say more than that." This tour does the opposite. Every single claim is sorted, out loud, into one of three categories — documented (there's a record and we'll show you), disputed (real historians disagree, and you'll hear both sides), or myth (a good story that doesn't survive contact with the evidence). That's not a gimmick bolted onto a normal ghost-tour script — it's the actual structure of the tour, referenced at nearly every stop.
The result is a tour aimed at a specific kind of guest: people who like a good conspiracy theory but want to come away knowing more than they did going in, not just spookier.
Please look out for a guide holding a red flag next to BlackWell House in GuildHall Yard.
