Alfie hunts Albert Square ghosts

EastEnders pub landlord Alfie Moon is set to cash in on Albert Square's gory history by starting a ghost tour for his latest money-making scheme.

The comedy character, played by Shane Richie, comes up with the plan for a Jack the Ripper-style walking tour of Walford's haunted hotspots, in scenes to air on BBC One at Halloween.

Highlights of his gruesome guided tour will include the flat where Heather Trott was murdered by Ben Mitchell.

A show source told The Sun: "The backroom staff had a lot of fun planning this one."

Other famous murders in Albert Square over the years include Dirty Den Watts who was murdered by his wife Chrissie and buried in the Queen Vic pub cellar.

Violent husband Trevor Morgan was bludgeoned to death with an iron by wife Mo Slater in their family home, and crazed vicar Lucas Johnson killed his estranged wife Trina when he pushed her during an argument and she impaled her throat on a rake.

And the first ever episode of EastEnders saw elderly resident Reg Cox found dead in his home, after he had been killed by bad boy Nick Cotton.
