Whitby Abbey to be spectacularly lit up at night - see when this year's event is on
Whitby Abbey will once again be spectacularly lit up during the Halloween Week.
Always a huge crowd-puller, visitors will be able to experience the site after dark and wander through the dramatic ruins of the abbey famously noted for being the inspiration behind Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
