Blood on the Clocktower | York | 11 October 2026

£95.00

Join us for a day of murder, treachery and revenge at a Georgian craft-beer mansion in the heart of medieval York.

  • Date: 11 October, 2026

  • Time: 11am - 6pm

  • Players: Suitable for everyone, from complete beginners to hardened demon hunters

  • Age: 18+ (16+ with a responsible adult)

  • Food: Buffet lunch and complementary drink included

  • Tickets: £95

The Game

Blood on the Clocktower is a social deduction game, in which a team of wary townsfolk attempt to uncover the evil hiding among them. Each round someone is murdered, and the players must use their special skills and powers of deduction to identify and execute the demon and its minions before it’s too late. But in this game of shifting loyalties and shaky alliances, who can you trust?

Players are guided by a Storyteller, who arbitrates rules, manages hidden (mis)information and chairs execution committees. While death is a constant threat, it’s not the end of your game. You’ll keep playing as a ghost - losing your special powers, but still sharing what you know, making deductions, and running interference for your team (at least you think they’re on your side…).
