Remember, remember the fifth of November,
The gunpowder treason and plot.
I see no reason why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.

Guy Fawkes, ‘twas his intent
To blow up King and parliament.
Three score barrels were laid below
To prove old England’s overthrow.

By God’s mercy he was catched,
With a dark lantern and lighted match.
Holler boys, holler boys, let the bells ring
Holler boys, holler boys, God save the King!

Thinking of getting close and personal with some sinister apparitions on or around Halloween?

Well on a night out with one of our ghastly guide hosts (and they are frightening enough), you could well encounter many of London’s notorious spirits including - Cedric the Soldier, The Handsome Phantom, Fred the Poltergeist, Black Dog of Newgate, Headless Lady, Twill Trousers, Scratching F***y or even a 16th century monk named Father Benedictus.

London’s iconic landmarks look great al lit up in the night sky, but come with us through some of the darker streets and atmospheric alleys - with a guide, who’s also a street alchemist with bone-chilling tales of screams and smells of burning flesh.

This one is not for the squeamish, and so prepare for some spooky stories in the dark shadows including: a visit to the most haunted house in the capital, the reenactment of a theatre murder scene now haunted by the victim, bodysnatchers and grave diggers all in the name of science, burning at the stake and horrific executions.

Reserve now for Thursday 31st October, or other preferred dates:
