London Ghost Walking Tour: Discover Haunted Secrets at Night
Overview
Available languages
2 hours
Mobile ticket
London is a city with over 2000 years of history, but when night falls, the streets reveal a darker side, full of horrible histories and paranormal activity you won't find on your average walking tour.
You and a group of travellers will follow a local guide into the shadows to discover the haunted spots. Your guide will tell you dark history and chilling tales of ghostly monks, doomed prisoners, and mysterious apparitions that still haunt London’s landmarks. You'll uncover the secrets of Charterhouse Square, hear eerie whispers at Smithfield Market, and tread carefully through the haunted halls of St. Bartholomew’s. From the notorious Fleet to the murder on Blackfriars Bridge, every stop adds a new layer of spine-tingling suspense. We’ll finish at the infamous Clink Prison, where the spirits of the condemned still cling to the walls.
Will we see a ghost? Maybe. But one thing’s for sure: you’ll never see London the same way again. Book your spot now, if you dare.

Smithfield Market
This isn’t just a meat market; it’s a site of gruesome executions, ghostly apparitions, and eerie legends.
