The San Francisco Dungeon

Visit: The San Francisco Dungeon, 145 Jefferson St, San Francisco, CA 94133-1223

The San Francisco Dungeon brings together an amazing cast of theatrical actors, special effects, stages, scenes and rides in a truly unique and exciting walkthrough experience that you see, hear, touch, smell and feel. It’s hilarious fun and it’s sometimes a bit scary.

We love it. We know you will too. Here's why:
A huge NEW Dungeon at Fisherman’s Wharf, between the new Madame Tussauds and the Rainforest Café, 200 years of history, 9 live actor shows, 1 dark boat ride Being scared has never been more fun.

We bring to life the authentic stories of old San Francisco in an original, scarily funny walkthrough show. The San Francisco Dungeon is an all-new visitor attraction to the San Francisco area, from the renowned Dungeons attractions in Europe, such as The London Dungeon, The Amsterdam Dungeon, and Berlin Dungeon. It’s 60 minutes through 200 years of San Francisco’s authentic past. You and your companions walk through the Dungeon, moving from show to show, guided by our professional actors. See a map of The San Francisco Dungeon’s tour.

The shows are based on real San Francisco history and legends (minus the boring parts!). You’ll get up close and personal with sinister characters including Miss Piggott, the Wild West saloon owner, and the infamous crimper, Shanghai Kelly. It’s a fully themed experience. That means 360-degree sets, total authenticity, and theatrical storytelling. On your journey, you’ll pass through the Lost Mines of Sutter’s Creek, where gold was first discovered, and Alcatraz, the island military prison for the most heinous of criminals! Believe us, it’s better than a sightseeing bus or a boring museum tour of San Francisco.
