PRICE

from £19

A live actor show at The Edinburgh Dungeon bringing Victor Frankenstein's experiments to life, included with admission.

Step inside the Anatomy Theatre at The Edinburgh Dungeon for a live actor show based on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. You'll watch Victor Frankenstein's obsession with conquering death play out, complete with stolen body parts, forbidden experiments and electricity crackling through the air as thunder sounds and life is forced into the lifeless, right up to the moment the Monster opens its eyes. The show is included with standard Dungeon admission, so there's nothing extra to book or pay for once you're inside. It runs from 3rd October to 1st November.
