London Dungeon

Ni se os ocurra ir a este patético sitio, no da miedo en absoluto, da risa, hasta los niños de 10 años que habían por allí se aburrían. Encima te cobran una pasta tremenda. Lo único que hacen en este sitio es darte una charla, todo en inglés, y nada más. En fin una timada increíble. Lo siento pero no podía dejar de poner esta opinión porque me sentí totalmente timado, un autentico robo.

Just went to this this morning (Sunday 31 August) and have to say this was very disappointing.

First there was the fact that we paid in advance and assumed that we would not need to queue. No, we had to queue with people who were simply paying on the door.

Next we had to pose with stocks and an axe for a photo which we could buy later on the tour. My girlfriend declined but was leant on to comply.

Then more queuing! The first few rooms were not scary at all and you have no real time to look at any of the exhibits as the actors shuffle you from room to room.

I have to agree with the comments about some of the humour which is quite near the knuckle and not really suitable for children. Also some of the actors didn't seem to be too interested in staying in character, especially when they were talking to their friends!

Not being a rides person I found the 2 rides to be quite scary but if you are experienced I suspect you will find them very tame.

The tour lasts about an hour after which they try to flog you a photo of the stocks/axe setting and a photo taken on the ride (for £7!)

I came to the Dungeons when I was a kid in the eighties and not only was it much scarier (no actors, just waxworks) but it was a lot cheaper!

My advice would be to save your money as this is defintely not worth the £30 that we paid or even half that sum. Go and see a show instead!

I had visited the London Dungeon before its remodel, and had always enjoyed myself. However, on my most recent visit I found that this once interesting, witty, and chilling torture museum had become a dumbed down "theme park" museum of sorts. There were no more exhibits about the different tortures, different "rides" that were supposed to offer some sort of entertainment. For the price, i can not recommend this place to anyone. Bring back the old London Dungeon. Please!
