Description

This Halloween, journey back in time to when the city’s graves were overflowing with corpses and city-dwellers were forced to take their dead on a one-way train on the Necropolis Railway.

With centuries of disease, poverty, crime and punishment let us show you an untold story of London’s historical past.

Struggling with a growing population and the spread of gruesome diseases; graves were re-used, bodies scattered and the city had no choice but to send the dead to the countryside for burial. The deceased were stored underneath London’s most famous stations and streets until their turn on the Necropolis Train.

Reveal the secrets of London’s dead on this historical tour of ghosts and gore and join us deep underneath Waterloo in what is rumoured to be the remains of The Necropolis Station.

This immersive pop-up experience by Apocalypse Events will be running for a limited time only, don’t miss your place on the train of the dead!

This Halloween, join us for an immersive horror storytelling scare experience deep underneath the tunnels of Waterloo Station.
