Details
Make: Believe at the Royal Armouries and discover the magic behind the movies.
It may be tough hearing things in space, but at a museum not so very far away you can hear, see and try your hand at the movie magic that makes swords out of light, heroes out of convicts and xenomorphs out of anything those pesky face-huggers can wrap their slimy legs around. It’s time to strike back!
Visitor Attraction of the Year 2004. White Rose Tourism Award.
