Joel Griggs, from the attraction, said: “The walk gives a fascinating insight in to Hastings’ criminal history. The eerie after-hours tour takes you on journey through time exploring intriguing cases and stumbling upon some interesting and unsuspecting locations”.

the shocking and tragic details of the only murder committed in Hastings during WW2; the hell raising night on the town that turned into a right old Carry On and a furious town centre clash that left a Hastings Observer columnist dead with a gunshot to the head.
