📍The Tower of London, St Katherine’s & Wapping, EC3N 4AB. There’s even supposedly the ghost of Margaret Pole, The Countess of Salisbury, whose execution in 1541 supposedly took eleven blows of the axe.
Let’s just hope they don’t find you during your visit. The ghosts of the murdered boys are thought to wander the fortress looking for revenge. The royal brothers Edward V and Richard Shrewsbury were locked in the tower by Richard III and left to die, as a plot to seize the throne. One of the most historically famous tales of murder and foul play associated with the building is the story of the Princes in the Tower. Could it possibly be due to the thousands of executions linked to the Tower? Or perhaps it’s the ten ghosts that have been spotted roaming the halls over the years, including Anne Boleyn herself? Either way Tower Of London is a seriously spooky venue and for those brave enough to venture inside, you’re in for a real (trick or) treat. This 900-year old fortress is the first place that comes to mind when we think of haunted London.
