The London Dungeon
The London Dungeon is a uniquely thrilling attraction that will whisk you way back to the capital’s most perilous past. See, hear, feel and (ahem) smell the chillingly amusing characters of the ‘bad old days’ as they come to life before you. Step inside Sweeney Todd’s infamous barber shop on Fleet Street and let him give your life a short back and sides. Then tread cautiously through the streets of Whitechapel, as Jack the Ripper could be lurking just around the corner… You probably think you’ll be safe after that but there’s also the small matter of the Plague, a vengeful Henry VIII and his Executioner and the Torturer who would really like you to talk. Then, you’ll be sentenced for your crimes (guilty of course) and sent to Newgate Prison to hang! On the off chance you survive all of that, you’ll round off your journey with a visit to the Dungeon Tavern; hear the latest gossip with the locals!

Interactive and exciting with theatrical entertainment with historical facts. Walk through ends with a short but thrilling ride.

Nice animated way to learn about London history. The audience is taken through various historical events with scenes and character actors to show what happened to people who lived during that time.

I throughly enjoyed this experience. The actors in each room were superb. Especially the woman on trial for being a witch. I was put in a cage as the other witch on trial. I jumped a mile when she appeared next to me out of her cage. As a history buff myself this experience was showing the darker side of history. The only drawback was totally out of the actors control which was there was a couple talking loudly during the entire experience. But that wasn’t on the actors because they do ask very politely at the start if you talk to do so quietly not to spoil it for the others on the tour. I’d highly recommend it. Not great for small children or those of a nervous disposition. But brilliant if you are brave enough
