THIS HALLOWEEN

Step into the shadows for an exclusive, spine-chilling 18+ experience at the London Dungeon with our Blackout Event: London's Vampire Awakening.

You were never invited. You were chosen.

An ancient bloodline has opened the gates to their crumbling, moonlit castle. They promise a feast in your honour - an opulent affair beneath vaulted ceilings and candlelit corridors.

But as the final guest arrives, the flames sputter out, the iron doors seal shut … and the truth sinks in.

This isn't a celebration. It's a hunt.

What waits in the shadows is not human - at least, not anymore. Navigate the treacherous halls, escape their clutches, and try to survive the night.

Some want to feast. Some want redemption. All of them want you.

This exclusive 18+ after-hours experience is for those looking for something with a little more bite than our daytime experience. Do you think you can handle it?
