Dracula, Frankenstein & London's Literary Ghosts Free Tour

London is home to and inspiration for some of the most terrifying horror stories ever written. The London's Greatest Horror Stories tour brings them to life. This is NOT a Jack the Ripper Tour or a ghost tour - but rather a tour of London's haunted theatrical and literary past and the real places that inspired some of the world's most famous horror stories.

Bookmarked is a walking tour company that focusses solely on London's rich bookish history. As this is our only nighttime tour, we throw in a couple of ghost stories for good measure.

In this 1h 45m tour, you'll walk in the footsteps of the creators of Frankenstein, Dracula and several terrifying others.

See where Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker, Shakespeare, Dickens and others took inspiration to craft some of the most macabre and terrifying ghost stories ever put to paper.

We begin by a depiction of the decomposing corpse of one of the city's greatest writers, work our way through London's terrifying legal district, and conclude on the steps of St Paul's Cathedral.

Run by Bookmarked founders, Adam RW & Leo Flanagan, the London's Greatest Horror Stories tour is devilishly delightful and is one of our most popular routes.
