London horror tours warn of morbid amusements
A travel column lists London attractions like Jack the Ripper Walk and historic sites, then contrasts them with an in-home tour of a basement and garage. The narrator uses a humorous horror theme to describe personal household misfortunes, from floods to a troublesome treadmill and a messy cat area. The piece ends with attribution to Mike Deupree's column in The Gazette.
