Time Out says

Your chance to get an even more gruesome insight into London’s grisly history of public executions. The Museum of London’s 'Executions’ exhibition contains artworks, objects and first-hand accounts relating to the unhappy victims of the scaffold and the hoards who turned up to witness them breathe their last between the 12th and 19th centuries. At this candle-lit after-hours event you can hear execution ballads sung live, join curator-led tours and guest talks to hear more of the lesser-told stories in the exhibits, watch film screenings and sample some rather intriguing-sounding drinks inspired by the exhibition.
