Description
London Ghost Bus Tour and Comedy Horror Show

This is one of the most unusual ways to see London after dark: you’ll ride through the city on an original-style “Carcass Coach” while
on-board actors and creepy technical trickery turn the sightseeing into a comedy-horror show.

Why you’ll love this
- See the gruesome side of London: the tour leans into the city’s darker tales—murder, torture, execution, and ghost stories.
- It’s a show, not just a ride: actors and special effects turn the bus into a moving theatre.
- London landmarks by night: you pass major icons while hearing the “grisly skeletons in the capital’s cupboards.”
- Perfect for a spooky night out: great if you want something different from the usual sightseeing loop (especially around Halloween).
What to expect
You’ll start near Northumberland Avenue and travel through central London at night, heading through the City of London,
the heart of Theatreland, across Tower Bridge, and even south of the river. The bus is styled in midnight black,
with “carriage/railway style” seating arranged for comfort.
Along the route you’ll see major sights including the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, St Paul’s Cathedral,
and the Tower of London, while the cast delivers a spooky, comedic narrative about London’s ghosts and grim history.
The story of the “Necropolis” vehicles (also known as Carcass Coaches) is part of the theme—complete with details like the historic “mourning whistle”
used to warn pedestrians as the buses approached.
