As Featured In
Not all of London’s history rests in peace, some of it still lurks in the shadows.
When night falls, the darker side of London emerges, one where paranormal activity is at play. Step into the shadows with a group of intrepid and morbidly curious explorers on a Ghost Tour of London, you won’t soon forget, even if you try. You’ll follow a ghost-obsessed guide into the haunted heart of the city, where more travellers dare not pass. Here, you’ll wind through eerie alleys and forgotten courtyards, where chilling tales of cursed monks, doomed souls, and lingering spirits wait to be uncovered.
Feel a chill in Charterhouse Square, listen for whispers echoing at Smithfield Market, and tread carefully past the ancient stones of St. Bartholomew’s. From the macabre mysteries of Cock Lane to the spectral spirits lingering on Millennium Bridge, each stop pulls you deeper into London’s ghostly underworld.
Just when you thought the terrors were over, we’ve saved the best for last, if you manage to survive until the end, of course. We’ll finish the tour at the infamous Clink Prison, where history’s most unfortunate souls have left more than just their chains behind. Stay close, and maybe… don’t look over your shoulder.
Will you see a ghost? No promises. But after this night, London will never feel the same, and it just might haunt you (in the best possible way).
Book now, if you dare.

Walk Among the Restless
Ghost Tour highlights
| 1 | A Grim Discovery Sets Events in Motion. |
Your tour begins in Altab Ali Park, once home to the whitewashed church that gave Whitechapel its name. Soon after your guide has set the scene, you'll learn about a disturbing discovery: the Ripper's first victim, Polly Nichols. Learn about her difficult life, the hardships she faced, and why this made her so vulnerable to the Ripper's gruesome spree. |
| 2 | The Tragic Tale of Annie Chapman. |
We arrive too late. Jack has struck again, and his victim, Annie Chapman, lies motionless in a backyard on Whitechapel's Hanbury Street. Your guide will share details from Annie's tragic life and terrible death, and pay tribute to this poor woman whose vulnerability the Ripper preyed on. |
| 3 | Terror Grips London's Streets. |
As we walk through Whitechapel, your guide will share stories of the women who lived and worked here, the hardships they faced, and the exploitation they endured. Understand the social and historical context of these crimes and the fear that haunted London's East End. |
| 4 | The So-Called "Double Event". |
Swedish-born Elizabeth Stride was the Ripper's next victim, her body discovered in Dutfield's Yard with her throat slit and drained of blood. Her story reflects the challenges of immigrant women in Victorian London, struggling to survive in this unforgiving environment. |
| 5 | The Spree Continues. |
At Mitre Square, Catherine Eddowes is found disembowelled within the same hour as Elizabeth Stride. Is the Ripper on a rampage, or could others be involved? |
