St Albans is a picturesque marvel of medieval architecture and Roman ruins, but beneath the quiet, affluent commuter streets lies a dark, incredibly violent past. This is the city where Britain's first Christian martyr was beheaded, where Queen Boudicca slaughtered thousands of Romans, and where the brutal, hand-to-hand street fighting of the Wars of the Roses choked the cobblestones with the dead.\u003cbr\u003eWith history this dark, it's no surprise that the past refuses to stay buried.\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003cb\u003eGhosts of St Albans\u003c\/b\u003e, you will step inside the twisting alleyways and ancient timber-framed pubs of one of England's most haunted cities.
