  Great scare, wouldnt take young children. Plenty of jumpy moments. Actors are really good at making it spooky whilst sharing York histories. Don't worry they dont touch you but be ready to be plunged into the darkness a few times. Highly recommended

• Good fun

  We visited York Dungeon as part of a works do. 2 hair salons, 18 hairdressers and my God did they deliver. It was Horriblely great. We booked to have it all to outselfs and the price for this was amazing. Alex got in touch right after booking and himself and Hannah personalised all the scrips to us. I gave a small amount of information however they went above and beyond on research about the company's and the staff to make it hilarious, scary and wonderful all in one. We cant thank you enough for all the effort and the team had a great time and still talk about it now. Such a great group experience and worth every penny.

• Hilarious and Scary

  So glad we did this, had the most fun time. The actors were honestly amazing, and despite there being a very small group of us the experience was not affected. Each room was a great mix of educational and entertaining, while genuinely scaring us at time! Definitely recommend

• Great day out

  The York Dungeon is overpriced for what it offers. I expected a scary and immersive experience, but there was far more talking than actual scares. It felt more like a history show than a horror attraction. Overall, it’s disappointing and not worth the high ticket price.

• Great immersive experience

  We had a great immersive experience at York Dungeon, was picked a few times to participate, which was a bit of fun. The Plague Doctor, Torture & Witch were standouts. It wasn’t overly scary, but beware if you jump easily, of actors lurking in the dark. A good bit of history and educational content on York.

• Great experience, give it a go!

  Brilliant experience. Went with my wife whilst in York for our anniversary. I was expecting to just walk around a museum type experience but this is so much more, as I realised as soon as we got to the front desk. Actors are brilliant and the whole experience was entertaining. Beware this is interactive so you might end up in the show so to speak - I think the actors picked up on my fear of this and didn't pick me but some of the people who were in our group were picked multiple times and had a good few laughs.
