Wails From the Crypt
A line of brave Lacuna Coil fans snakes down the side of London Dungeon, gearing up for a terrifying evening. Tonight they’ll get their own special tour – with extra scares provided by vocalists Cristina Scabbia and Andrea Ferro – before listening to the band’s ninth album, Black Anima. With entry only £10, and all proceeds going to charity Make Some Noise, tickets sold out in minutes. Hammer nervously sneaks inside to find out what’s happening behind the scenes.
5PM: Team Hammer arrive in the dungeon’s school room to find Cristina and Andrea debating takeaway orders for their dinner break; the general consensus is that they need Chinese food. Cristina’s taking photos of the gory medieval torture illustrations around the room – getting any ideas for home decor, Cristina?
Cristina and Andrea pick their costumes to frighten the fans later – two menacing plague doctor outfits complete with spooky masks and robes. Cristina dons her mask and remarks, “This is something we could do onstage!” Too right they could.
