I transformed into Plague Doctor for horrors that awaited me at London Dungeon… I was still shaking by the end – The Sun
ARRIVING at the London Dungeon, I had a pretty good idea of the frights that lay in store.
Or so I thought. Little did I realise I was going to be part of the attraction myself — by going behind the scenes for 30 minutes of make-up that turned me into the Plague Doctor.
Nothing prepared me for the shock of seeing myself in the mirror.
With zombie-like eyes and yellow crusted boils all over my face, part of me wondered if I was patient zero for the next pandemic.
At least I looked the part for the horrors that awaited on my tour through London’s dark and depraved past.
After a terrifying drop into dimly lit, plague-infested streets, I suddenly found myself immersed in a plot to kill the King . . . axe and all.
Things soon turned even more sour. We got caged in the torture chamber, chains and manacles clinking on the wall.
I was then strapped to a chair while the dungeon’s chief torturer brandished all sorts of mean-looking iron instruments.
This was a man who clearly loved his job.
Later, we came face to face with a doctor who seemed to prefer her patients more dead than alive.
Then there was the haunting encounter with a witch that left us a little pale.
Finally, after a chilling run-in with Jack the Ripper, I was more than ready for a drink in the tavern at the end.
But keeping the glass steady while my hands were still shaking wasn’t easy.
Richard Quincey, the attraction’s head of performance, told me: “Each year we know our guests expect more scares than before — and we really think this year we will match that expectation as we celebrate our 50th birthday.
“The team have worked incredibly hard to deliver the scariest seance show yet, and our actors are ready to bring out the most terrifying story we’ve ever told.”
