About this experience

Step into the shadowy streets of London and uncover a city where ghosts, legends, and dark secrets lurk around every corner. On this Haunted London tour, a knowledgeable guide leads you through winding alleys, haunted churches, and forgotten graveyards, sharing spine-tingling tales of restless spirits, eerie apparitions, and centuries-old mysteries.

Begin at the atmospheric Smithfield Meat Market and the Priory Church of St Bartholomew the Great — watch for the ghost of Rahere, the founding monk. Explore St Bride’s with its Roman remains and iron coffins, hear whispers of the Black Lady of the Bank of England, and stand outside Sweeney Todd’s infamous barber shop. Follow the trail of Jack the Ripper, visit the pubs where he struck, and learn why he was never caught.

Outside one of Europe’s oldest hospitals, hear stories of ghostly nurses, spectral patients, and figures seen gliding through windows long after visiting hours end.

Stop 9

Outside this Ripper-era pub, discover the tragic lives of victims who drank here — and the ghostly sightings reported upstairs when the lights go low.

10

Gaze up at this imposing church as tales of phantom organ music, moving shadows, and disturbed graves emerge from beneath its crypt.

11
Stop 11

End your journey in the twisting lanes where fear once ruled. Follow the Ripper’s trail through dark alleys as your guide recounts theories, sightings, and why some say something still stalks these streets.
