Ghost Hunt at the Historic Coffee House: Liverpool’s Oldest Haunted Pub

Step into the shadows of Liverpool’s oldest surviving pub and hunt restless spirits lingering in its 18th-century walls.

On a mild June evening, DeadLive invites you to an intimate, professional paranormal investigation at The Historic Coffee House in Wavertree. This beloved landmark boasts over 250 years of documented history, whispered hauntings, and eerie echoes from the past.

For example, the spectral licensee Elizabeth Heys, who ran the inn in 1777, still features in local tales. Ghostly revellers from forgotten summer Assemblies and the clatter of long-gone horse trams echo outside. Because of this rich history, the pub’s ancient rooms thrum with unseen energy. Join us to explore the chilling stories that have haunted this Wavertree icon since the era of Ale House Recognizances and Robert Cain’s brewery empire.

Discover the Hauntings of The Historic Coffee House

First licensed in 1777 under Elizabeth Heys, The Historic Coffee House quickly became Wavertree’s social centre. It hosted lively Assemblies, political meetings, and horse-bus travellers. By the 19th century, its opulent interiors—designed by renowned architect Walter Thomas—welcomed day-trippers overlooking open fields that later became the White Star Line sports ground.

Although the cobbled forecourt has shrunk and the old Crown Brewery arch is now bricked up, the building’s ancient sandstone foundations and lingering spirits remain unchanged by time.
