ABOUT

IMAGES

Torture, beheading, plague and murder are the main 'attractions' at the London Dungeon - a museum dripping with the murkiest dregs of British history. In addition to the repulsive animatronics and waxworks complete with appropriately gruesome sound effects, there are also some (very much alive) costumed staff who stand in the displays and jump out at unsuspecting parties of tourists. Theme-park style rides include an enjoyable 'Traitor Boat Ride', and a frankly terrifying gallows-themed sudden drop ride called 'In Extremis'. You won't be surprised to learn that kids absolutely love it. It is also an excellent way of fostering your children's interest in history, though the downside is that they may force you to buy some truly repellent items from the gift shop. Tremendously torturous.
