Celebrity Hall
Meet stars face-to-face
From Taylor Swift to Dwayne Johnson, lifelike figures sit under studio lights. A single figure can take six months and more than 150 measurements to complete, with teams crafting skin tones, eyes, and costumes in exacting detail.
Pose beside your favourite star - flash photography is encouraged.

Marvel & Star Wars
Film heroes in 4D and wax
Interactive zones feature a 4D Marvel cinema with air blasts and seat rumbles, plus Star Wars characters added in 2015 in collaboration with Disney and Lucasfilm.
Watch the 4D show - air blasts and seat vibrations add to the fun.
📍 Upper Floor
Chamber of Horrors
Dark side of history
Reopened in 2022, the Chamber revisits Madame Tussaud’s early death masks and notorious criminals. It traces how Victorian fascination with crime shaped exhibits - and why some stories still disturb today.
