What you can expect

Looking for a spine chilling adventure in London? On this Ghost Tour, we'll walk through the city's most haunted streets and uncover true stories of executions, torture, conspiracy, and London's dark past. You'll meet your local guide and a group of fellow ghost lovers at Charterhouse Square, where the remains of Black Death victims lie hidden beneath your feet. From there, you'll explore Smithfield Market, once the site of brutal executions, before visiting Britain's oldest hospital, where unethical early medicine shaped history and the dead were not always left to rest.

As the tour continues, you'll hear dark tales from Newgate Prison, uncover the sinister legend of a barber on Fleet Street, and pass St. Paul's Cathedral while discovering its turbulent past. From the modern mystery of Blackfriars Bridge to the chilling storey of an actor's final fiery performance at Shakespeare's Globe, each stop reveals another unsettling chapter of London's history.

The tour ends at the infamous Clink Prison, where you'll hear stories of the condemned who were imprisoned, forgotten, and left to rot. Listen for the chilling screams and rattling chains that are said to echo through London's oldest prison. Stay close to the group because in London, one thing's true: you're never really alone.

Skip the boring walking tour and discover the dark side of London. We promise you'll never see the city the same way again. Book your spot now, if you dare!
