The London Dungeon is a theatrical attraction bringing 1,000 years of London's darkest history to life through live actors, interactive shows and a ride. You'll move through fully themed 360-degree sets with special effects, meeting characters such as Jack the Ripper and Sweeney Todd along the way, with thirteen shows and twenty live actors creating a mix of laughs and screams. It suits those who enjoy immersive, spooky storytelling rather than a quiet museum visit. Located in South Bank, London, it's just 0.3 miles from London Waterloo station, making it easy to reach by train, and with 776 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays, it's simple to base a trip nearby.
