About The Strange Case of 7 Charlotte Square

Step into the Strange Case of 7 Charlotte Square, where bodysnatchers and beheadings, hauntings and hangings are just the beginning. Uncover the house's chilling links to infamous murderers, cunning thieves, and notorious traitors as we delve into its dark history.

This is a free flow experience so please arrive anytime between 6:00pm and 8:00pm.
