AFTER DARK · SWEDEN GHOST TOURS
Good sweden ghost tours run small groups and fill up around Halloween. Below: the 4 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Walk through Stockholm’s Gamla Stan with guides such as Callum, Chris, Cody, and Reece, hearing stories of murders, executions, disease, ghosts, and medieval life. Expect lantern-lit lanes, old courtyards, cobblestones, stairs, and theatrical storytelling in English or Swedish.
“It was really good fun and our guide Chris was funny, informative and macabre. He did a good job at getting the attendees involved :)”
Walk Stockholm’s oldest streets for 90 minutes with an English-speaking guide such as Chris, Callum, Reese, or Cody. Expect true accounts of murders, plagues, executions, myths, and legends, plus narrow lanes, old courtyards, lively theatrics, and a memorable visit beneath the German church.
“Very interesting stories! the guide, Christofer, was very expressive and the tour was kind of a performance in itself! Very positive experience, definitely worth adding to Stockholms must-dos”
Walk Stockholm’s Old Town with a local guide such as Michael, Emma, or Jonathan, hearing about the Stockholm Bloodbath, castle murders, executions, and creatures like mylingar, Skogsrået, and Näcken. Expect two hours of stories, history, and dark Nordic folklore in English or Swedish.
“Jonathan was great! We had a lot of fun, he was very accomodating to any questions and always clear and complete answers, totally recommended”
Walk from Stortorget to Saint Jacob’s Church with a guide such as Jonathan or Åsa, hearing about executions, curses, trolls, Swedish tomte, water spirits, and dangerous folklore. Expect an English-language stroll of about 90 minutes, with history and dark storytelling rather than jump scares.
“Otroligt kunnig guide som pratade drygt 2,5 h. Kanske inte så mycket farligt folklore, men mycket annat!”
A walk, a graveyard, a crawl or a full investigation.
