About this experience

Shadows stretch across Stockholm as evening falls. This two hour private guided walk reveals tales of horror and folklore. You begin outside the Nobel Prize Museum where silence holds a strange weight. At Stortorget the stones recall the blood of executed nobles. Along Prästgatan the ancient city wall whispers in the dusk. Old Town’s alleys twist with legends that cling to the cobbles. You climb Logårdstrappan where grim stories linger on each worn step. In Kungsträdgården statues watch a square once marked by death. At St. Jacobs Kyrka the White Lady waits in spectral silence. The night closes with echoes that follow you home.
