Read on for our guide to all the best spooky things to do in London this Halloween. You could also test your Halloween courage by exploring London by night in a special tour, learning about the grisly goings-on at the Tower of London, or revisiting some of history’s most chilling horrors at the London Dungeon.
One ghoulishly great way to celebrate Halloween is with a play or musical – perhaps one that centres on witches, like Wicked, or which has a murder mystery at its heart, such as London’s undying long-runner, Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap.
The annual fright night falls on 31 October, which is a Tuesday this year, and if you just love everything about this spine-tingling holiday, then you’ll want to start thinking about your plans now. Something wicked this way comes… and London is packed with spook-tacular shows and activities that are perfect for Halloween 2023.
