Hiding in its millennia-old history are the macabre stations and one of a kind spooky houses. Yes, the world’s top running metro offers some spine-tingling scary attractions to millions of its tourists every year. Like a local would say: “Step into the eerie side of London.”
If you wish to have people capitalize your fear, here are the top places for you:
- Hyde Park, The Non-Human Graveyard
Sprawling around in a 350-acre lush green space meant for jollies and day picnics, Hyde Park is a popular London Horror Attraction. The location has an ancient burial ground, where more than 300 pets were buried––thus chiming at the name of being a Non-Human Graveyard.

- The Old Operating Theatre Museum
The Old Operating Museum is widely regarded as one of the topmost haunted places in London. It is located in the attic of the early 18th century of the Old St Thomas’ Hospital. The hospital saw many innovations in the field of medical surgeries, which of course, was carried on the backs of many unnatural deaths. The room, to date, reeks of flayed carcasses and has half-cut eyeballs as a decor on the walls.
Visitors have confirmed the accounts of hearing cries and screams of patients in pain and agony in the passing corners of staircases and the attic.
