AJ Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Yep it appears so - They have left us for good at the old dungeons but we will see them back again at the new ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Is the sweeney todd room where you are all sat in the seats still there then? (Still in the old dungeons) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 No, it has been replaced with 'Freeze Fog'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Hutson Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Is there a larger than life Chimney Sweeper? If there's no fog - that's cause for complaint? Is it even cold in there? Oh dear... Still, I guess they've got no money left! Is the audio track using the same binaural technique as Todd did? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Nice little "attraction" to waste some time whilst they've obviously gone cheap and used the same set in the new dungeons! Would've been ace if they used the same boat ride as well, could've just chucked people in some water for a bit to keep them occupied.

Topsyturvy15 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 With Vengence being relatively new doesn't it seem a bit of a waste of money as its had a very short working life and isnt being moved to another dungeons attraction?

Tom Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 No, due to all of the downtime it has and therefore maintenance costs. For example I doubt moving the rotating platform a few inches off the floor was an easy or cheap thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam T Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Some construction pictures of the new dungeons from The London Dungeons Facebook!

Benin Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Looking good, the lighting will no doubt be the icing on the cake... Such a difference to how County Hall's insides look... And better than Death Trap I'd imagine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Hutson Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 I love the detailing of the floor. Never noticed if Tooley Street had this... and I was only there on Saturday! They're going to have water dripping from the ceiling, apparently - and rain and temperature effects in the Jack the Ripper Streets. Sounds pretty epic to me!

Please say one of them is like the mini-rollercoaster at the Amsterdam Dungeons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 I think it means the other boat ride and the other Extemis which are technically new? I'm hopefully wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 I think it means the other boat ride and the other Extemis which are technically new? I'm hopefully wrong though. That's so cheap in that case... I just love the idea of an indoor rollercoaster and ever since Amsterdam had theirs. I thought it would be a fantastic way to re-launch the London Dungeons.

Sheepie Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Will, that coaster in the Amsterdam Dungeons is absolute cack. I've heard several bad reviews about it and there just wouldn't be the space for it to provide a decent layout. The new boat ride is going to have a totally new story and Extremis has a lot more potential at the new site. I'm hearing more and more good things about the project the closer we get. Maybe I'm a previous sceptic who is now converted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Absolutely no space in County Hall for a coaster, and as said, the Amsterdam coaster is apparently absolutely awful and pointless... New boat ride and Sub Terra style Extremis is what we're getting, as well as new scenes... Considering the amount of space County Hall has (or lacks), it's the most we could expect...

Nick Hutson Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 It's still bigger than the current Dungeon site, however - and it on three different levels. Wonder how many photo ops the new dungeon will have... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Hopefully just the one, I dunno how many Blackpool's Dungeons has, but the Tussauds there had about 20 (possibly an exaggeration, but there were at least 4) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPJames Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Just double checking, I have a merlin pass voucher, how do I redeem it at the dungeons, where do I go? Then also, how do I book a time with my merlin pass, do I just go in the priority queue and enter or do I have to do some special booking! I am visting on Saturday, and I am very excited but it is my first time visiting, how scary is it? Thanks very much guys, it's very appreciated! Also guys, is veagence returning to the new dungeons? I am wondering where it will go if its not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want my question to be left behind Someone please answer it! About veagence, is it good? I will have a ride when I visit on Saturday but also where is it going to go? I know people say the will not happen, but I really do think it is going to thorpe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Vengeance is by far one of the biggest pointless attractions I've experienced... Made no sense and the guns? Worthless... Dungeons you turn up and show your MAP at the Priority Entrance (closest to London Bridge station Tooley Street exit), time shouldn't be too much of an issue...

TPJames Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 How do you exchange/buy a merlin annual pass voucher there though? Also my friend has booked a timeslot, will I still be able to go in with him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pluk Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 With this many questions you are probably best off phoning them!! 020 7403 7221 Mer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPJames Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Well you have to pay for that and I could just find the anwser on the forum... I will probably end up phoning them anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
