Many cursed souls are haunting the city of Prague, ancient legends say. There are places connected to murder, torture and executions, alchemists creating mysterious monsters, bad plague waves and even worse doctors. The guide shares these tales with you, but the suspenseful storytelling also easily introduces historical facts. Your guide will meet you on Old Town Square in the heart of Prague. From there, you begin your journey into the eerie lanes with notoriously haunted houses, decommissioned cemeteries, medieval churches and hospitals and other corners of the city linked to the supernatural. Locals had felt the need to pass these stories down across many generations before they were finally penned down by Prague writers in the early 1900’s, an era that inspired your guide's elegant historical costume. Through the tight and immersive act, you will get to know the true haunted side of Prague. But since all the legends are rooted in actual historical settings and your guide will keep apart fact and fiction, this tour is also a legitimate way to get to know Prague. The tour makes stops at a handful of famous landmarks of Prague’s Old Town and Jewish Quarter, but also leads through picturesque areas off the beaten path with hidden gems. In 90 minutes, you'll be back at the starting point, where you will receive further tips for the evening and a selection of Prague sightseeing suggestions inspired by the experience.
