Ghost tour of Prague offers you some pretty true dark stories!
Let´s take a walk to the Prague’s dark past, through narrow, cobbled streets and winding lanes where murderers, alchemists, monsters, ghosts, and spirits once walked. You will be taken to several locations connected to local legends and mysteries passed down from generation to generation.
Once a den of poverty, plague and magic, an area often overlooked by tour guides yet full of history, intrigue and atmosphere, you’ll hear stories of death and betrayal, dark arts and demonic visions.
Learn about the restless spirits said to roam amongst the beautiful architecture of the Old Town and who knows...perhaps you’ll even meet them face to face!
No one will jump out at you to try to scare you. On this tour we focus on storytelling and not on special effects or cheap tricks to make the tour ‘frightening’. We will take you through the mysteries, legends and tales from the darker side of Prague’s history, and none of our stories are made up for the tour.

The House at the Stone Bell
is an ancient Gothic palace which goes back to 13th century. It was probably built for the royal family, and it is said that Emperor Charles IV was born here.
The Kinský Palace
belongs to the most beautiful Rococo buildings in Prague. Franz Kafka used to attend the German speaking high school located here in 19th century. Today, the Kinský palace is a seat of the National Gallery.
Jan Hus monument
The monument of Jan Hus, famous Czech protestant reformer who was burnt as a heretic in 1415, is situated on the Old Town Square since 1915. Since the middle ages, the Old Town Square used to be the main Prague´s square and market place where exotic goods were sold. It had many names during the centuries: the Big Square, the Old Market or the Large Old Town Square.
The present name comes from the end of the 19th century. The Square used to host knight tournaments, celebrations, artistic events, etc. It witnessed many crucial historical events such as the election of Jiří of Poděbrady as the King of Bohemia in 1458, executions and fightings. Demonstrations, marches and parades take place on the Square even today.
