Explore haunted London after dark. Hear ghost stories, dark legends and chilling tales from the city's hidden streets.
About this Event

Step away from the postcard version of London and uncover a city filled with ghosts, ghouls, executions, and unsolved murders. Ghosts, Ghouls & Ghastly Murders is a haunted walking tour of London that explores the capital’s strangest stories — from restless spirits and paranormal sightings to forgotten serial killers and bloody moments of royal history.

This evening ghost tour of central London starts at Cleopatra’s Needle, a riverside monument surrounded by myths of curses, accidents, and ghostly encounters. From there, we walk through historic streets, government buildings, and royal parks, revealing the darker side of London’s past.

On the tour, you’ll discover the shocking story of the execution of Charles I, a dramatic act of regicide that sent shockwaves across Europe. You’ll hear about the horrifying crimes of the Thames Torso Murderer, one of Victorian London’s most disturbing unsolved cases. We’ll also explore legends of ghosts on the London Underground, mysterious sightings in Green Park, and haunting tales linked to St James’s Park.

Key locations on this London ghost walk include Great Scotland Yard, Horse Guards Parade, St James’s Palace, and some of the city’s most atmospheric green spaces. These places may look peaceful today, but their histories tell a very different story.

This 2-hour haunted walking tour finishes at Green Park Station and is ideal for visitors searching for ghost tours, haunted London experiences, true crime walks, and unique things to do in London at night. The tone is witty, informative, and entertaining — spooky enough to intrigue, but never too scary.

Spaces are limited — book your place now and experience London’s most entertaining ghost walk.
