May 28, 2012 in Blog, giveaway, review
The York Dungeons.
It’s a long time since I went to York & sadly when we were there we didn’t go to the The York Dungeons, but having a look at their website there is certainly more there now than when I was in the area. All there was then from what I remember was just a Viking museum with real smells.
Now, well wow, take a look yourself at the York attractions that they have to offer & also have a look at other things to do in York.
Do you fancy a bit of excitement? Do you like fun? Then this is a great place to visit, ok some of it can be scary but not in a bad way! You can explore 2000 years of York’s gruesome history at The York Dungeons. There sure are some interesting & horrible sides to history & you can find that all here!
There are 11 shows, with 7 actor led shows, making The York Dungeon attraction a spine chilling experience and a great day out for all the family.
Do you want to come face to face with the notorious highwayman DickTurpin? The infamous “firestarter” Guy Fawkes & the spine chillingly names Viking King Eric Bloodaxe!
Once in the The York Dungeons you will discover the Labyrinth of the Lost Roman Legion, the deadly plague, the fearsome torture chamber and the fate of the Yorkshire Witches.
How brave are you really? Can you face 70 minutes of live actors recreating the dark history (with special effects) of York’s dramatic past?
What you can expect to find there.
Escape the burning flames in Clifford’s Tower
Wander through the Plague ravaged streets
Meet the real Guy Fawkes who will tell you the true story of the Gunpowder plot
Experience the presence of ghosts which will chill your very bones
Enter the labyrinth of the lost roman legion
Meet the notorious Viking leader Eric Bloodaxe in Bloody Vikings
The Judge then knows exactly what you’ve been up to in the 17th century court room
Will you escape the torture chamber alive? Your punishment will be harsh!
Travel to the dark depths of the dungeons of York prison, where murderer, thief and torturer Dick Turpin the infamous highwayman awaits his fate.
Will you loose your head in Execution: Traitors of York? (NEW FOR 2012)
The Witch hunt is on! Hear the screams and feel the heat in Witches: Burned alive.
Over 70 minutes of York’s most gruesome history brought to life…

would love to visit york dungeons
I’d love to visit York Dungeon. We are determined to visit York again this year to walk on the walls and take lots of photos of the great architecture in the city. It would be great to add the excitement of the dungeons too where they bring history alive. Back on the streets again we’d celebrate with an eccles cake each – we discovered a shop there that sells the best we have ever tasted.
The Drop Ride and London please
I would love to visit York Dungeons its only a quick train ride from us and would make a great day out.
York Dungeons would be amazing. It looks very scary and interesting at the same time. I am a great Thrill seeker. This would go down a treat!
My girls would love to win this competition, fingers and toes crossed xx
The Drop Ride in London please
I’d use them in London and find out the “truth” about Guy fawkes
I would use them in London, My son is fascinated with the story of the Great Fire of London so that would be the first thing he would want to see
Would love to try the drop ride at the London Dungeons
I’d love to visit the Guy Fawkes exhibition, but then the Ghosts of York attraction looks good too. We were in York a couple of years ago at Halloween and went on a ghost walk around the streets. It was very spooky and we scared ourselves silly. None of us wanted to walk at the rear because in horror films it’s always the one at the back that gets ‘taken’
Meet the notorious Viking leader Eric Bloodaxe in Bloody Vikings sound sgreat my daughter loves horrible histories and this is right up her street! Id use the ticket in London in the school holidays
We are going to london for a short break so would love to go there

I’d love to visit the Blackpool Tower Dungeon and learn about the Pendle Witches.
York Dungeon would be brilliant
I would love to win tickets to the London Dungeon – I have been waiting ( and waiting!) until my children were old enough to go ! I would most like The Sweeney Todd attraction as Sweeney has a special place in my heart as we did the play at school!
I would like to win tickets to blackpool tower dungeons and I would like to see the The Elevator to Hell.
We’d probably use the ticket at York dungeon, but I’d love to see the Guy Fawkes exhibition.
