The Home of Halloween

Get ready for scary season to truly start, as The London Dungeon invites you to its ‘Home of Halloween’ Hide & Seek show this October. Tipped to be one of the scariest shows EVER at the South Bank attraction (rivalling even the impending Brexit), those who dare to enter can expect more screams, scares and chills – as the infamous Jack the Ripper story is explored.

Guests will be immersed in Jack’s tainted and twisted tale, as they travel back through one of the darkest periods in London’s history. The chilling Halloween show will transport guests to the heinous streets of Whitechapel, as they learn for themselves the human cost of one man’s malevolence.

The theme won’t stop there, as visitors to the London Dungeon will also plunge into the stories of the press who gleaned every gruesome detail in order to get the ‘scoop’, as well as the sensationalists who twisted the stories to their own advantage. Those with enough mettle to carry on will go on to hear from the Whitechapel Vigilance society, made up of the ordinary people of Whitechapel who were so scared they took the law into their own hands to find the killer…

Jack the Ripper’s take-over is not the only reason to beware of The London Dungeon this Halloween as guests will have to venture past soulless skeletons, rat-infested cells, scenes of torture, cannibalism and bubonic plague.

Andrew Walker, General Manager for The London Dungeon said: ‘Halloween is the most thrilling time of the year for The London Dungeon, and this time we’re going bigger and better than ever before. We’ve decided to theme our Halloween show on Jack the Ripper this year – a story not for the faint-of-heart. It’s one you won’t forget, although you’re going to want to try.’
