Korea's most popular ghost tour! One of the top things to do in Seoul. This is the side of Seoul that you won’t find in the tourism brochures. Take a tour down the dark alleys of Seoul's forgotten 600-year history of bloody massacres, seedy hideaways and mourning ghosts. Self-proclaimed clairvoyants on the tour have reported a few sightings, including a little girl who has been seen following the group around. This is not only a ghost tour, but a walk unearthing Seoul's murky and violent past, making the city much more interesting and intimate. Guests also receive an online map of all the haunts, murder sites, and torture chambers mentioned on the tour.

Interesting stories and experience

5.00The Seoul: Evening Dark History, Folklore & Ghost Story Walking Tour was a fascinating and unique way to experience the city after dark. The stories were captivating, blending history, folklore, and local legends into an engaging evening. Our guide, Shawn, was knowledgeable, friendly, and an excellent storyteller who brought each tale to life. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a different side of Seoul!
Worth it!

5.00We had a great time during this tour with Shawn! We've done quite a few spooky and haunted tours all over the world, but Shawn's way with words and stories made this one of the most memorable (read: best) we've been on. Despite the heavy rain, the route felt manageble and safe to walk. Shawn has a good walking pace that's easy to follow and we didn't lose anyone! We even ended the tour with more people than we started with. Halfway through the tour we noticed a girl in a long white dress amongst the group staring at us in pure silence, we swore we hadn't seen her before but we took her along anyway. Just kidding. (or am I???????) All jokes aside, I highly recommend going on this tour with Shawn! The stories and sites were interesting and gave us the chills several times. We went on the extended tour and it was definitely worth it.
Needs improvement and price correction

3.00In my experience the tour is not worth this price, I book the extended tour and I cant say I found out much. I guess Joe is tired of repeeating the same story over and over again over the years, which I understand, but it makes the tour a bit sluggish
Nice walk & stories, fun experience!

5.00Not only was it nice to walk around the city at night (due to it being more tranquil) but we walked through streets I hadn’t seen or been to before. Shawn was a very good story teller and it was nice to listen to the stories he told. It was a fun evening and I will definitely book a new tour in the future.
An Very Engaging Ghost Tour!

5.00Hands down, a very good ghost story walking tour! What I liked: I was only one of two attendees, which made the tour and story telling more personal. Shawn Morrisey, our tour guide, was an engaging storyteller, never a boring moment. The stories and urban legends he narrated, as well as the folklore associated with them, were very interesting. The tour itself was the right length for me, although I would think the two and a half hour walk might be too much for older people. They have a shorter tour available, too. (Personally, I didn't even notice the time; the engagement was that good!) What I "didn't like:" Nobody to blame here, really. I just wished that I booked the ghost walk in the beginning of my time in Korea instead of the night before I was scheduled to fly out. Shawn mentioned other places to see, connected with the tour, but circumstances for me made it impossible to visit them. As I told Shawn, "On my next trip to Korea!" (Better book the tour early in your Korean vacation, as you will want to visit and experience the places Shawn mentions.)
At night through Seoul

5.00Joe was a fantastic tour guide who led us through the folklore of Korea with wit and charm. He always welcomed questions and sought conversation on the way to the next destination. I personally recommend the tour to anyone who wants to learn about the spirits of Korea. 5☆
Dark side of Seoul

5.00I'm a fan of ghost stories, urban legends and folklore. I don't know much about Korean folklore, so this was a perfect oppurtunity for me to learn. Was it spooky? Yes. Was it chilly? Yes. Do I recommend? Absolutely!
Cool

5.00We have done ghost tours around the world and this was one of the best. It is not because we saw several ghosts. Instead, it is because we heard fascinating stories about real events and real people that have lived in the folklore of Korea. Shawn Morrissey is a fantastic guide with a depth of knowledge and the ability to tell a story. We took the extended tour and it seemed to end too soon. Shawn kept the tour moving and the information flowing.
Amazing spooky nighttime tour!
