From now until October 31, visitors to the clifftop English Heritage site will be able to wander through the dramatic ruins bathed in light.

And a special evening in celebration of Whitby Goth Weekend takes place on Friday October 27.

Wear your best Gothic get up and strut your stuff down a ‘batwalk’ as Abraham Van Helsing will be there looking for the best dressed Goth, best dressed Goth dog and best dressed mini Goth to award some special prizes to.

Exclusive theatrical performances will take also place within the abbey ruins during the illuminations, with a twist on the usual Dracula show.

Illuminated Abbey runs from 6pm to 9pm.

Tickets can be booked on the English Heritage website.
