In this immersive, second-person historical narrative, we guide you through the grim, claustrophobic reality of life (and death) inside one of Britain’s most infamous prisons: the Tower of London. From your arrival through Traitors’ Gate to the cold stone of your cell, the hunger, the interrogations, the ghosts, and finally — the block — this is not the romanticized past. This is the Tower as it truly was: slow, crushing, and indifferent. Told in a calm, darkly poetic voice, this 2-hour sleep video blends brutal history with sensory immersion, designed to lull you into sleep while quietly unsettling you with the quiet horrors of the past. 💤 Perfect for history lovers, insomniacs, and those who enjoy falling asleep to soft voices and uncomfortable truths. 🛏️ Drowsy Historian’s Favorite Sleep Tools Looking to upgrade your nighttime routine?
