About this experience
Crafted by a specialist in Welsh folklore and paranormal history, this immersive audio tour unearths the chilling secrets that standard city guides ignore.
This digital experience invites you to step away from the crowded bus routes and loud trolleys of central Cardiff to explore the ancient, narrow pathways of Llandaff that wheels simply cannot reach.
The narrative weaves through the hallowed shadows of Llandaff Cathedral, along the mist-shrouded banks of the River Taff, and into the haunting silence of an abandoned graveyard where the veil between worlds feels thin.
Using smart GPS technology, the cinematic soundscape and authentic local testimonies trigger automatically as you walk, working entirely offline so you can lose yourself in the story without worrying about data.
By the time you navigate the twisting wooded lanes of Llandaff Meadow and return to the cathedral’s spire, you will feel like a true insider of Cardiff’s darkest history.
