What ghosts and ghouls lurk in the darker galleries of London’s museums? Join Learning Programme Coordinator Katie Hinchliffe, as she discusses the macabre collections and historic spaces awaiting your visit, hiding in the plainest of sights.

There’s a hole in the world like a great black pit,
And the vermin of the world inhabit it,
And it goes by the name of London.
Stephen Sondheim, SWEENEY TODD
