Seoul Ghost Walk: Dark History & Folklore After Dark
About This Tour
This is the side of Seoul you won't find in a tourism brochure. The walk moves through dark alleys tied to 600 years of massacres, seedy hideaways, and restless spirits. Self-proclaimed clairvoyants who've joined in the past have reported a few sightings of their own, including a little girl who seems to follow the group.
It's not only ghost stories. It's a walk through Seoul's murkier, more violent history, the kind that makes the city feel a lot more layered once you know it. Guests get an online map afterward marking every haunt, murder site, and torture chamber mentioned along the way.
Content is rated PG-13, with some stories touching on sex and violence. Parents and sensitive listeners, take note.
Starting points: "The Original Ghostwalk" at Anguk Station, exit 2. "Ghostlore & Legends" at Seodaemun Station, exit 4.
✅Solo-friendly | ✅Female traveler-friendly | ✅LGBTQ+ friendly.
