Have you got your costume ready,
as the Halloween is approaching London this weekend? Whether you are going to become
a witch, a sexy vampire, zombie or whatever else your imagination can come up
with, Short Let London would like to suggest some ideas for you to spend a
really spooky Halloween night in London.
You could throw a house party and
decorate the room in eerie style, as Halloween inventory such as spider webs,
skeletons, bets, chopped fingers etc are easy to find in any supermarket, or
for more special fun accessories and costumes visit fancy dress shops, there
are many of them in Camden Town, especially we would recommend “Escapade”, or “Beyond
retro”, “Angels”, “Prangsta”, “Charles H Fox”, you can even rent a costume from
The National Theatre. Think about what food and drinks you will be serving for
Halloween party, of course it should include dishes with pumpkins, creepy cupcakes
with decorative popped-out eyes or other body parts, ghosts and spiders, surprise
candies, caramelised apples, alcohol cocktails with some orange juice and “Bloody
Marry” cocktail. To send chills down your spine watch a horror movie,
preferably in the dark with all lights off, here is Short Let London list of
the best movies for Halloween: “Paranormal Activity”, “Frankenstein”, “Halloween”,
“Contagion”, “Saw”, “Poltergeist”, “The Silence of the Lambs”, “The Exorcist”, “Rosemary`s
Baby”, “Psycho” and “The Shinning”.
But if you do not want to stay at
home on the All Saints Night and want to go ghost hunting, there are many
places in London that will host special events and Halloween parties, such as
Zombie Horror Camp at the Old Vic Tunnels that will include voodoo doll making,
various DJ sets and grotesque strip. A lot of bars and pubs are getting into a
spirit of Halloween and put on fancy dress nights, visit some of the most
haunted bars in London, such as Bow Bells in Bow, or any underground clubs,
there are many of them in London. Some great parties are taking place at XOYO –
“XOYO Halloween Special”, “Ultimate Power” at Electric Ballroom, Halloween – “The Haunted Mission” at Pacha, “Satan`s
Rout Halloween Ball” at The Coronet, £For the Love of Mic” at the House of Wolf
and many others.
For a really spooky experience
visit London Dungeon, London Bridge Experience and London Tombs to explore the underground
world of the capital with its haunted tunnels. To do something completely different
take a boat trip from the London Canal Museum (Camden), or go behind the scenes
to see how the magic was created and brought to life at Warner Bros. Studio
Tour London – The Making of Harry Potter.
As you can see London is definitely
the right place to be on Halloween night, as it has number of haunted pubs, castles
with ghosts, underground venues and tombs that hide the mystery of London`s history,
very often dark and cruel. Short Let London wishes you to have a very frightening
and scary night on the All Hallows` Eve and we will be happy to accommodate you
during your short stay in London in one of our holiday apartments for short
