Top 12 Haunted Attractions in London

London

Tower of London

Not only is the Tower of London a World Heritage Site and one of the capital’s favorite attractions, it’s also home to many inhabitants of the undead variety -- with a past full of beheadings, hangings and tortures. Some of the most-sighted ghouls include the Princes in the Tower, allegedly murdered by their uncle Richard III, Anne Boleyn and the White Lady, who apparently brings a strange perfume smell with her on her hauntings.

Highgate Cemetary

By night, Highgate Cemetery depicts something out of a horror movie. Eerie crooked gravestones, headless angels covered in ivy and dark overgrown passages between the tombs make Highgate Cemetery Britain’s No. 1 ghost spot. Despite its chilling atmosphere, by day the cemetery showcases some of Britain’s most spectacular Gothic architecture, offers fascinating guided tours and is also the burial place of Karl Marx.
