5.00I would highly recommend this tour. Having not been on a ghost walk before, we weren't sure what to expect & booked based on the previous reviews. We weren't disappointed, our guide Callum really brought the stories to life & was very entertaining.

Stockholm’s Ghostly Secrets Brought to Life!

5.00We absolutely loved this ghost tour in Stockholm! From start to finish, it blended history, mystery, and storytelling in the best possible way. Our guide (Reese) was not only knowledgeable but incredibly engaging—every alleyway suddenly felt charged with centuries-old secrets. We wandered through the Old Town’s dimly lit streets while hearing chilling tales of long-forgotten tragedies. The guide struck the perfect balance between humor and suspense, making it both spooky and fun without feeling overly theatrical. What really stood out was how much authentic history was woven into the experience. We walked away entertained and genuinely fascinated by Stockholm’s darker past. The pacing was great, the locations atmospheric, and the stories unforgettable. If you’re visiting Stockholm—or even if you live here—this tour is an absolute must. It’s one of the most immersive and enjoyable ways to explore the city after dark!
Good tour guide.

5.00Cody was an incredibly expressive storyteller, really immersing his listeners into the history on this tour. Stockholm is a beautiful place, and this was a wonderful way to see it. Dress warm and prepare yourself for some disturbing imagery (it's a ghost walk, after all), and have a good time!
Best Experiemce ever!!
