As night falls the Merchants invite you to join the search each evening between 6pm and 8pm (Monday – Thursday only) for Little York Ghosts, along the atmospheric ancient streets that surround York Minster. This is a seek and keep hunt.
One of which is our very own Goodramgate! View the map & you’ll find plenty to eat or drink whilst on your ghost hunt!
The Ghost Merchants have been hiding little Ghosts around the city of York for many years and the act of hiding, seeking and the communal event that has grown around this activity is at the heart of Ghost Week. It is free to participate in and open to young and old - however we do stress that people should exercise good grace, kindness and compassion while participating in the Ghost Hunt.
There are 125 to find each evening and included in their number are two rare & unusual types in limited number each night!
/**
* TIME FIELD TWEAK — hide seconds + force "00"
*
* What it does:
* - Finds every `.form-item.time` block.
* - Sets the seconds input `.field-element[data-title="Second"]` to "00".
* - Hides the seconds UI `.field.second.two-digits` via `style.display = "none"`.
*
* When it runs:
* - On `DOMContentLoaded`.
* - On `mercury:load` (Squarespace’s AJAX/PJAX page-change event).
*
* Why:
* - We don’t need seconds; this keeps the UI cleaner and standardises submitted values.
*
* Notes:
* - Safe to remove if you later want users to pick seconds.
* - If Squarespace changes markup, update the selectors above.
* - Logs a credit message to the console (“Soundfocus Digital”).
