'The Great Stink' of 1858 overwhelmed London so badly it led to an Act of Parliament to clean up the City. In fact, odious odours were a horrible part of everyday life in times gone by and this summer the London Dungeon will take guests on a smelly step back in time.
Special scratch and sniff tours will conjure up the pong of the plague and the charred perfume of public execution to name a few. Running regularly over the summer holidays, guests will be given a special scratch and sniff card to activate at selected points on the tour. As the Dungeon's cast of horrible actors bring to life the terrible tales of Londons murky past, the audience will be able to smell what it might have been like at that time in history from the vile Victorian Streets to the cloying stench of the Medieval City.
A special stink squad will also be lurking in the shadows wafting smells under guests noses and beware of three super smell zones around the attraction. Traitor: Boat Ride to Hell will recreate the stench of the River Thames in the Great Stink, the ash and smoke of 1666 will permeate the Great Fire area and the Labyrinth of the Lost will reek of the souls abandoned there.
Plus theres a whole dungeon of scary fun to discover as a cast full of horrible characters, from Bloody Mary Tudor to Jack the Ripper, bring Londons gory history to life in 14 different shows. AND three great rides; the 5D ghost hunting Vengeance, drop ride Extremis and Traitor: Boat Ride to Hell. The London Dungeon is open seven days a week and over the summer is open from 10am 6pm. Tickets are available from 19 for adults and 13 for children or combine your visit with Madame Tussauds London, SEA LIFE London Aquarium and the EDF Energy London Eye and save 40% online.
