The
London Dungeon
The London Dungeon is best
known for its depiction of medieval torture and executions. Even
adults have been known to scream when a frightening image lurks at
you in the dark.
Among the different experiences is the exciting boat ride feature,
Judgment Day, which casts the visitor in the role of the
condemned. The spectacular Jack the Ripper experience is as
chilling as ever, retracing the steps of the infamous London
serial killer.
Madame
Tussauds
Madame
Tussaud's is an absolute must for all visitors to London- children
and adults alike.
The
life-like wax models of many famous and infamous characters are a
true wonder.
Visit
The Chamber of Horrors - . A spooky reconstruction of one of the
streets of London stalked by Jack the Ripper forms the centerpiece
of the exhibition. One of his six victims - Catherine Eddowes -
lies in a pool of blood. Other scenes show mass murderers
including John Christie, Dr Crippen, John George Haigh, Gary
Gilmore, and Charles Manson.
The
theme ride, which cost ten million pounds to complete, uses
robotics to bring characters to life, recreating the sights,
sounds and even smells of over 400 years of London's history.
Visitors climb into a 'Time Taxi' and are transported on a
historical journey to join Shakespeare working on a play, Queen
Elizabeth in her court, and even craftsmen working on St Paul's
Cathedral. The atmosphere of the Blitz, the Swinging Sixties and
present-day London are all portrayed in this exciting ride.
