This county is full of stories. From haunted houses to phantom coaches, buried giants to sleeping dragons, wayward sons to mad earls, explore them all this autumn with Original Shrewsbury's new Mini Mural Trail.

This Halloween, pick up your free trail map from Shrewsbury Museum's gift shop or 20+ other venues around the town centre, and follow the map to find artworks inspired by Wild Edric, the Loggerheads, and even a visit from the Devil himself...
