October 29, 200915 yr comment_74894 Haha, stalker! The priority pass online "deal" was ridiculous if you ask me.. The website claims you save money booking online but only if you book a time slot before 10:30 am. Otherwise the price is much more, the peak time (12 ish) I think was about double the entrance price.. and what for? To queue for an hour and a half.. Priority, I think not?
October 29, 200915 yr comment_74895 Yeah, that would be ridiculous, but I have a Merlin Annual Pass so that is why I used the priority access line. Still I would prefer 1 hour and 30 mins than 3 hours which was apparently the general admissions line.
October 29, 200915 yr comment_74896 We waited about 2 hours but the queue line quickly grew after we joined it, so 3 hours is very possible!
October 29, 200915 yr comment_74900 I did however think the boat ride was great Does anyone know the manufacturer?Also I was disappointed with Extremis, I had heard great reviews, but there wasn't a wait, obviously because you go round in groups and I don't see why it's therefore so short. One drop towers work when there tall, but shorter towers need a bit more. Does anyone know the manufacturer of this either ?I am not sure, but I think the manufacturer for the drop tower is Fabbri.I have no clue on the boat ride to be honest! Could be Mack?
October 29, 200915 yr comment_74901 I am not sure, but I think the manufacturer for the drop tower is Fabbri.I have no clue on the boat ride to be honest! Could be Mack? I believe that the manufacturer for the boat ride is Mack.
October 29, 200915 yr comment_74902 I thought that but I'm pretty sure they don't do that type of boat. My first guess was Intamin, but then it would be likely to have restraints. Probably a company we've not heard of before :)Edit: Ah right, thanks Paul
October 29, 200915 yr comment_74921 I saw nothing to do with it, despite it being advertised at the entrance... I hate to make a negative comment about it, maybe some staff were off ill, but they could at least had a notice that it wasn't running.

October 30, 200915 yr comment_75004 Did you see any area it could be in?None at all, but it is possible its an event they are doing outside when the queues are extremely long (maybe mid afternoon) But I saw nothing that would suggest it, it is a little puzzling.
December 22, 200915 yr comment_78184 Went today and enjoyed it alot! Though educational, I happened to know pretty much everything they explained from the black death to Jack The Ripper... Was funny to explain to Marc that Jack the Ripper exsisted once upon a time!
December 22, 200915 yr comment_78198 For the record I knew it real... just didnt know iif the story they told was 100% true thats all!!

February 18, 201015 yr comment_83428 aw that sucks, why not?You obviously have not visited before.When you walk around the London Dungeons, it is sort of a continual flow.Once people get off the ride, the next lot come on.The only real way is to re-enter and go through the whole thing again!However, I suppose if it was very quiet you could ask if you could stay on.However, from my last visit - The ride staff are very unfriendly! They seem to have the attitude "do this" "omg can you do that" etc.I would just stick with riding once and enjoy the attraction for all its other glory and not just the 2 rides.
February 19, 201015 yr comment_83471 Keith's right. If you haven't been before, it's a completely different style to a theme park. The whole attraction is very much a tour, you pass in groups through various sections, some of which may include attractions. They are there primarily to make the tour more exciting, and less like a museum if you will. Unfortunately, re-rides can't happen. But to be honest, in my opinion they're not really the sort of rides that I would want to do over and over. There aren't any thrilling coasters or anything similar, for example one is just a simple boat ride which again, emphasises the educational part of the visit rather than anything else.
February 19, 201015 yr comment_83483 We went on Wednesday, it is very good, for anyone that is wondering, it isn't scary at all, nothing compared to The London Tombs or The Asylum. The actors are great and play their parts very well, if you haven't been before it's worth a visit! Bloody Mary is awesome!
February 19, 201015 yr comment_83484 Bloody Mary is awesome! Bloody Mary is awesome!I was the victim though, and was burnt at the stake!
February 19, 201015 yr comment_83485 Tim put that very well. It's more of an educational visit than anything, rather than The Asylum for example, which is there just to scare. That said, it is a fantastic experience, and shouldn't be missed.
February 19, 201015 yr comment_83486 it isn't scary at all,Well it certainly scared me! :PThen again, I jump really easy!
February 19, 201015 yr comment_83487 Bloody Mary is awesome!I was the victim though, and was burnt at the stake!That bit is so cleverly done! When the lights flicker on and the body's eye pops out, I lol'd. xDWell Keith, the only bit that I found scary was the bar scene during Jack the Ripper!
