Kraków

As autumn cloaks Kraków in golden hues, the city’s ghostly legends come alive. Jet2CityBreaks experts said: “Wawel Royal Castle is steeped in paranormal lore, with visitors reporting sightings of royal spirits and magical glowing stones.”

Beneath the city, the Wieliczka Salt Mine invites travellers underground through shadowy tunnels and eerie chapels carved entirely from salt.

Stay at the Wawel Queen, a boutique hotel at the foot of the castle that combines historical charm with cosy, autumnal décor - the perfect refuge after exploring Krakow’s chilling tales.

Four-star Wawel Queen, three nights bed & breakfast departing from Manchester on October 31. Price: £399 per person based on two adults sharing, includes a 22kg baggage allowance.

Rome

The Eternal City’s cobbled lanes conceal centuries of secrets. “From spectral carriages in Piazza Navona to the haunted halls of Castel Sant’Angelo, Rome’s history is laced with the supernatural,” the experts said. Beneath the streets, the Catacombs of Domitilla and Catacombs of San Callisto promise a haunting journey through ancient burial chambers.

For the full experience, stay at The Inn at the Roman Forum, a boutique hotel built atop Roman ruins dating back to 50 BC. Fly to Rome from Birmingham, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds Bradford, London Stansted, Manchester, and Newcastle.

A gothic masterpiece by day, Prague turns truly spectral by night. “From ghost tours in the Old Town to the legendary Houska Castle - built to seal a gateway to hell - Prague is one of Europe’s most haunted cities,” Jet2CityBreaks experts stated.
