Despite its famous cafes, restaurants and winding streets the city also has a darker history.
A city voted as one of the best places to live in the UK due to beautiful cafes, restaurants and winding streets is also one of the most haunted places in Europe.
Mark said: "I'm not a psychic investigator, I'm a storyteller, and I've seen shapes and shadows. I used to live in the city where the old orphanage stood in Berden. The ghosts of orphans who were ill-treated are said to haunt it. I've heard those voices many times." While Mark is prepared to accept alternative explanations, he said: "I do know neighbours of mine who claim to have seen ghostly children in their houses.
"Some people suggest he looks like an orphan of the past, others say he looks like a boy now. Some believe he stepped into our world and others say we stepped into his. It's a mystery. It seems to be quite a recent apparition." "Eventually, he ran out and told everybody but nobody believed him. He became a religious, born-again Christian - it was the only way of coping with what he'd seen. Evidence has since proven that it was where the Roman road, the north-facing Via Decumana, was."
But the highwayman's tale is not the most terrifying pub talk. "There are lots of stories I cannot tell because they are too disturbing for people and families in York," Mark admitted, though he claimed: "There is a pub called The Black Swan where it's not unusual to see people collapse at the bar. When one of our guides was younger, she opened up the pub to work there and suddenly felt something strangling her.
