'Abandon hope all who enter here' is the message of the London Dungeon, the world's first and foremost museum of medieval (and other) horrors. It was begun in 1975 by a London housewife whose children were disappointed by the lack of blood and gore on display at the Tower of London. Certainly no one leaves the Dungeon with such complaints! Recently revamped to even scarier heights, the dark tunnels beneath London Bridge now include many more blood-curdling special effects, with a 'dark ride' (in every sense) and costumed actors to enhance the scream factor. Ghouls and the curious, including most of London's overseas teenagers, make this one of the capital's most visited attractions, but this is definitely not a place for young children or the faint of heart.
