Following the success of Battersea’s Museum of Horrors at Homegrown Festival in April, this eerie experience has returned to reveal the hidden horrors of Battersea’s history.
This free exhibition involves five audio trails, each telling a different gruesome fable from Battersea’s past. Pop on a pair of headphones and immerse yourself in tales that range from the gory to the supernatural – 100% based on true stories and unadulterated facts.
The exhibition will also include a sneak peek of the upcoming short film Battersea Ghoulbusters, a brand-new horror comedy made by local filmmakers.
Please bring your own headphones to enjoy the full immersive audio experience. If you don’t have any, speak to our box office team.
