Overview
Led by our comedian-slash-historian tour guides, your guided walking experience includes all of London’s gory gossip. We’ll bring each story to life as we stroll through the West End, accompanied by pictures, a setting sun and an eerie atmosphere.
While each tale will terrify, we inject plenty of comedy into the tour to bring a little light to the darker side of London. See Covent Garden, Cleopatra’s Needle, London’s historic theatres, walk along the Thames (and more) on this twisted tour.
From the blitz to body snatchers, from hauntings to hidden horrors, you’ll leave us with a wealth of knowledge, a ton of memories and a heavy dose of the heebie-jeebies.
