The Great Fire of London was in the year 1666 only a few months after the Great Plague which is also named the Black Death. There were execution methods (Hinrichtungsmethoden), witch traders (Hexenhändler), torture devices and methods (Foltergeräte und –methoden) and mass killers (Mässenmörder) such as Jack the Ripper.
About Jack the Ripper: He was a series killer who was feared by all. Jack killed at last five London female prostitutes in 1888. We don´t know exactly when he was born or has died. Nobody knows till this day his true identity.
In the year 2013, the London Dungeon moved from Tooley Street, to County Hall, South Bank, to be grouped with other Merlin-owned attractions such as the London Eye.

Our personal opinion:
Our own opinion is that there you can have a lot of fun and if you are in London you should have to visit it, of course only if you aren’t scared of ghosts. It´s a place where we want to go, too.
