Halloween 2026 | London, October
Looking for something spooky to do in London this Halloween? Deals site Wowcher has several Halloween experiences on offer at a discount, and we’ve added a couple of our other favourite frights. Here are five ideas for a spine-tingling October.
1. A Halloween afternoon tea bus tour, £26
Tour London’s most famous landmarks aboard a Halloween-themed double-decker bus while tucking into afternoon tea with spooky treats. A drink and a souvenir mug are included in the price. It’s family-friendly, fancy dress is encouraged, and it’s a fun way to show visiting friends or children the sights with a seasonal twist.
2. A Jack the Ripper walking tour, £4
For something darker, explore the atmospheric streets of Whitechapel on a 90 to 120-minute guided walk. You’ll uncover the history, the crimes and the enduring mysteries of London’s most infamous Victorian murder case. At just £4, it’s one of the best-value Halloween outings in the city, though it’s best suited to older children and adults.
3. A wizarding walking tour, £14.99
If ghosts aren’t your thing, try something more magical. This walking tour visits the London locations linked to the boy wizard’s films, from Diagon Alley-inspired streets and the Leaky Cauldron location to Platform 9¾ at King’s Cross, with film trivia and behind-the-scenes stories along the way. It’s a great choice for younger fans who’d rather be enchanted than scared.
4. Horror bingo in Shoreditch
For grown-ups, Hijingo’s The Final Cut turns bingo into a live-action horror show from 27 October to 1 November, with jump scares, spooky cocktails and prizes including £250 cash. Tickets start from £10.
5. Halloween after dark at Kew
For a family evening out, Halloween at Kew transforms the Gardens into an illuminated after-dark trail from 16 October to 1 November, with Dracula, fire performers and the Headless Horseman. The later it gets, the spookier it becomes.
