This was lots of fun, interactive with visitors getting picked to join in. Could be scary in places, especially when the lights were turned off. The actors were really good and definitely got into character.

The attraction itself is extremely well done. My issue is that you're not actually visiting the London Dungeons or even really a mock up of them. You are given some information but it doesn't feel particularly educative or informative. We much preferred the prison tour of the Oxford prison where you actually go to the prison. The tour guide is in fancy dress but you aren't scared half witless. In the "London Dungeons" you and a bunch of strangers are squashed into small spaces with gross smells mostly in the pitch dark or very very dim lighting. You don't know where you are or where you are going or how long it is to last, or where the nearest the fire exit is. You're in a basement. Lots of loud noises. My partner who loves horror films thought it was brilliant. The quality of live actors/acting was very high. Sadly however this was not at all appropriate for my 9 year old son who was terrified and he's fine with mild horror films such as Arachnophobia, but this was too much. It's really expensive, cost us £130 for 3 of us and we had to leave early via a fire escape (along with another traumatised boy from a diff family). I basically had to ask the live actor can we please leave. To his credit he immediately whisked us through the fire door. It would have been better however if we had been told at the start what was involved, how to exit in the event of a fire and it needs an age limit. NOT appropriate for a 9 year old. I was actually quite relieved myself to be out of there. I don't want to be locked in small spaces with strangers in the dark. Also the actors need to assess which of the customers want to be picked on to participate.

This was my second time going through the dungeon and it was better than the first time I went around! There are always new things there, the actors are always amazing and you get really immersed by the use of smells, sounds and scenery. The scariest part of the attraction is definitely 'The Curse of the Witch' as the 'witch' starts off in a cage, and then suddenly and moves to another cage with a member of the audience inside, and then appears around the room with seat vibrations, strobe lights, loud sounds and smoke. It is not as scary as a halloween scare attraction, but this scene does have a few jump scares. Another scene like this is the 'Ten Bells Pub' with 'Jack the Ripper'. This can be rather scary at first because there are loud sounds and jump scares with the man himself! Overall, I highly recommend this attraction to anyone who likes a spook and a good laugh. It is filled with audience interaction, spooks and laughter and should not be missed. I would say that anyone 10+ should do it, anyone younger might find it to overwhelming. I have done multiple Dungeon attractions now, that being 'Alton Towers Dungeon', 'York Dungeon', 'Edinburgh Dungeon' and 'London Dungeon' and the London version is definitely the best as it is the longest, has two rides, great actors and a perfect location!

This experience was really immersive! The acting was amazing, and I loved the interaction they have with visitors. I would slay it's not really scary even though there were some good scare moments.

The real torture is having to endure two hours of this pile of absolute garbage. It's just a bunch of rooms with jobbing actors reading bad scripts which try to mix history with comedy only to end up achieving neither, piss poor effects and an endless sense of come in, pay for your tacky arse photos you are forced to take between the main entrance and the show entrance, and then piss off back outside. The whole experience falls firmly into the 95% element of Sturgeons Law. If the tour was an hour longer, people would end up killing themselves in the pie shop. Still, at least I can know say I know what it's like to be raped in a dungeon. Crap.

Not as good as I remember but still amazing and scary. Fun for the family, minimal queues to get in, in fact we turned up 10 minutes before our pre booked time, showed the ticket and went in. Actors are amazing and certainly made for a great experiance.

It seems I forgot to review this elegant brother of the Edinburgh Dungeon, so I shall do so now! I shall begin with the ungodly long queue, I think Jesus lost faith in me as I waited for this location to merely let me into the lobby where there was another accursed queue, I then had some photos taken of me by some beast who kept encouraging me to touch an unholy person, I did no such thing so I folded my arms and pouted with righteous anger, after those dreadful images being made I was greeted by yet another queue and this time it was even longer, I found the experience itself very enlightening though I must confess to seeing the pearly gates on the droptower, people kept mocking me for it! It's not my fault I get panic attacks from falling of Notre Dame de Paris. Anyway it was a lovely experience and I'm glad that the cast kept calling the scoundrels who visited sinners, most fitting as half of them had the attitude of the French.

The actors during the tour clearly enjoying themselves were good and played their parts well which was totally different to those who greeted us on arrival. They were rude and aggressive. We arrived from bright sunshine outside into the near pitch black darkness of the dungeon, we could not see everything around us immediately so pushing us to move on was not helpful or appreciated. Once the tour starts as said previously the actors are good and the stories well told, however it was all quite rushed and the ride at the end of the tour was a little underwhelming. We did not think the tour was at all scary but the history stories about London’s past were interesting.

Took both my nieces who are aged 15 and 19 to the London Dungeon, we had a great time, fully immersive and the 15 year old got chosen for one of the parts of the show.

We visited the Dungeons as part as a 3 attraction ticket purchase from the machine outside the venue. The Dungeons are excellent well worth a visit, great and enjoyable history tour. Now,you maybe wondering why the average score. As a family we purchased a 3 attraction ticket and as my daughter has disabilities, we were able to get discount with a carer ticket. The dungeons and sea life was great and staff very friendly but, the big tour bus, which was part of the 3 refused to give a carers ticket even though their website says they do it and charged us £45 for the additional ticket. Now even though it was advertised as a three admission attraction, the extra charge by big bus eliminated the savings made. The Merlin group are being let down by their partners hence why the low review. Anyone considering buying tickets via the carer discount I’d recommend sticking to Merlin and attraction’s and is a different bus tour.

I remember coming here as a child and it scared the life out of me. All of the creepy models that were there now have seemed to have disappeared and replaced by more of an actor experience. It was still really good and immersive but I do like a bit of nostalgia they should bring a good section of these back.

Good use of money and entertainment. Amazing actors who interact with you, lots of stuff to learn, wish I went on the electric chair at the end 😔

I treated my boyfriend for his birthday, we both had not been before so we weren’t sure what to expect. It was brilliant, scary, comical and the staff were fantastic!! Highly recommend visiting. Also, great knowledge of history and greatly told and interactive by the staff.

A really spooky interesting experience. We as a family of 7 found the whole tour interesting and interactive . Thank you all

Fabulous, fun and immersive experience. The acting is excellent and effects are great. The groups are quite large which can make it a little tricky for children or shorter individuals to be able to see. Lots of flashing light effects and stairs. The witches were super scary! A few screams may of slipped out! Definitely worth a visit.
