Beyond its charming Old Town, Bucharest hides a world of eerie legends, haunted sites, and chilling ghost stories. This Ghost and Vampire Walking Tour takes visitors deep into the city’s supernatural past, where history and folklore blend into a spine-tingling experience. Led by a local guide, this night tour will reveal the mysteries lurking in the shadows of Romania’s capital.
Haunted Places and Unexplained Phenomena
Bucharest has been a silent witness to tragic deaths, unsolved murders, and ghostly apparitions. See the infamous House of the Devil, where strange occurrences have been reported for decades. Learn about the Evil Eye, an ancient Romanian belief that still influences locals today. Stop by the eerie Central School, home to unexplained whispers and ghostly sightings. Every location on this tour has a dark tale to tell, making this a must-do experience for those fascinated by the paranormal.
Dracula, Real-Life Vampires, and Bucharest’s Supernatural Lore
No ghost tour in Romania would be complete without mentioning Count Dracula, but did you know that Bucharest had its own real-life vampire? In the 1970s, the city was shaken by the terrifying case of a man believed to be a true vampire. Hear his disturbing story, along with other bone-chilling accounts of spirits, curses, and supernatural encounters. Whether you're a believer or a skeptic, this night tour will leave you questioning what lies beyond the veil of the ordinary.
