Itinerary

Stop At: Church of St. Bartholomew the Great, West Smithfield, London EC1A 9DS England

Duration: 8 minutes
Stop At: St. Sepulchre Without Newgate Church, Holborn Viaduct Next to the Old Bailey, London EC1A 2DQ England
The sinister economics of dead people. Grave-robbing and serial killing.
Clue: The Doctors at St Bartholomew’s Hospital were happy to deal with real low-lifes.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Old Bailey, London EC4M 7EH England
The most famous court in the world: The Central Criminal Court. Otherwise known as The Old Bailey.
Two serial killers who had their trials here.
Firstly, one who appeared here TWICE and who sent an innocent man to his death before later confessing his multiple murders of women.
Then the grim background to another who murdered 13 women and caused terror for over FIVE years.
Later in the Tour I talk about two other serial killers whose trials were here. One who murdered 15 boys and men; and the other serial killer who is perhaps the most dangerous woman in the world.
Duration: 8 minutes
Stop At: Printer Street, Printer St, London EC4A, UK
A ‘lighter’ moment on the Tour…vote on the scariest horror movies of all time.
Declan reveals the ‘Top Ten’ votes from 22 years of ‘The Blood and Tears Walk’, including a film in the ‘Top Ten’ that most of you simply do not know.
Also Declan’s personal recommendation for a horror film, a film even fewer of you have seen…
Duration: 6 minutes
Stop At: Crane Court, Crane Ct, London, UK
An extremely creepy individual who used to live round here and what he had in his window.
Plus a little psychological game Declan invented called ‘Possibilities’.
Plus two jaw-dropping statistics on serial killers which you do not know, and which may permanently change the way you look at the world.
PLUS the one thing you must never ever do in your life…
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Red Lion Court, Red Lion Ct, London, UK
Hear a dramatic account of a little known Victorian transatlantic serial killer who lived round here.
This true-life story, with a number of twists, would be perfect for a Movie, and yet the Movie has never been made.
The story ends with a question, based on what you have just heard, which very very few people can get right…
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Hare Place, Hare Pl, Temple, London, UK
It’s Jack the Ripper time. We visit the place, just off Fleet Street, where my Jack the Ripper suspect lived, and hear a detailed account of precisely why I think this man was Jack the Ripper.
Let’s see how good you are at profiling…
Also In this Jack the Ripper section of the tour is the toughest question of the entire tour. Get this particular question right and you are on the ‘Roll of Honour’ of ‘The Blood and Tears Walk’.
Only one person out of every 1,500 people who have attended the Tour have get this question right!
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: St. Dunstan In The West, 186A Fleet Street, London EC4A 2HR England
The narrow dingy alley we enter here may just be the creepiest place you have been to in your entire life.
We conduct a psychic experiment here – it’s a murder scene – and you hear about a pair of devious serial killers who operated around here.
If you are psychic, you will NOT like this place. I have had tough men be shaken by the atmosphere in here.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: 194 Fleet St, London EC4A 2LT, UK
Hear an excessively bizarre serial killer conspiracy theory, by a very strange and controversial writer, connected to the Dragon Monument where Fleet Street meets The Strand. Apparently all is not as it seems….
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Portugal Street, Portugal St, London, UK
I mentioned them earlier. These are two other serial killers whose trials were at the Central Criminal Court.
One who murdered 15 boys and men.
The other serial killer may well be the most dangerous woman in the world.
Duration: 7 minutes
Stop At: Princess Louise, Wc1 208 High Holborn, London WC1V 7EP England
We end at the wonderful Princess Louise pub, famous for its wonderful Victorian decor. However, after the final serial killer story of the Tour, you may hesitate to enter this pub!
A truly horrible piece of behaviour by a serial killer that you won’t read in any of the books about him, but was discovered by the Head of Forensics investigating his Murders, who later came on my Tour.
After this final story, Declan will, if you bought the ‘Tour and Book’ option’ from TripAdvisor, sign your copies of his best-selling book ‘Bloody London’, and add a personal message.
You can also buy the book from Declan, for just £7, if you didn’t buy that option.
The shops sell ‘Bloody London’ for the same £7 price, but Declan’s signature on the book – only obtainable if you have done this Tour – makes it collectable…
Duration: 6 minutes
