If you thoroughly enjoy being frightened, you’ll love this super-scary show, an exercise in pure gothic creepiness that’ll see you hanging onto the edge of your seat and jumping at the slightest sound. The fact that it has been released as a film, starring Harry Potter’s Daniel Radcliffe, is testament to its uncanny appeal.

Alexandra Palace history

The Alexandra Palace, affectionately known as "Ally Pally," is a historic entertainment venue located in North London, overlooking Muswell Hill. Originally opened in 1873 as "The People's Palace," it was designed to provide a cultural and recreational space for Londoners. Its stunning Victorian architecture features a grand glass-and-iron facade, reminiscent of the Crystal Palace, and it sits on a sprawling 196-acre park that offers panoramic views of the city. Though the building suffered two devastating fires in its early years, it was rebuilt and has since become an iconic venue for music, sports, and exhibitions.

The palace has hosted legendary events, including the first regular public television broadcasts by the BBC in 1936, making it a landmark in broadcasting history. Its vast Great Hall, which can hold up to 10,400 people, has welcomed performances from artists like Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, and Adele, as well as major events like the World Darts Championship. Beyond concerts, the palace is home to an ice rink, a theatre, and an exhibition hall, offering diverse attractions for visitors.

A quirky anecdote tied to its history is the time during World War I when the palace served as a refugee camp for Belgian citizens and later as an internment camp for enemy aliens. Today, Alexandra Palace remains a vibrant cultural hub, blending its rich heritage with modern entertainment, drawing millions annually to enjoy its dynamic events and breathtaking surroundings.
