Leave the chills for Halloween and enjoy a smooth, scare-free ride with Addison Lee.
Dracula: A Victorian Nightmare at The London Dungeon
Step into the shadows this Halloween as The London Dungeon unveils its spine-chilling new show: Dracula – A Victorian Nightmare. Known for its hair-raising tales and immersive sets, The Dungeon is taking terror to new heights in 2025 with its first-ever Halloween production.
The show transports you back to 1886, deep within the decaying Kingstead Cemetery, where you will encounter Count Dracula himself. It’s a hauntingly atmospheric dive into Victorian horror that promises to leave your blood running cold.
Whether you’re a horror enthusiast or just looking for an unforgettable Halloween event in London, Dracula at The London Dungeon is not to be missed.

Along the way, you’ll hear true-to-life stories about the Ripper’s unfortunate victims, the desperate investigations, and the long list of shady suspects who have kept historians guessing for over a century.
Make sure to dress warmly. But be warned as the tales might make your blood go cold.
