Frequently asked questions

What’s this all about?

You’ll walk through haunted spots in Aalborg, solve puzzles and riddles, and dig up stories of witch hunts, ghosts, and folklore. It’s part mystery, part history, part ghost story.

Can we play it at night?

Yes, doing this after dusk gives it full effect. Shadows, street lights, eerie vibes—perfect for a ghost walk. Just bring warm clothes if it’s chilly.

Is it scary for younger kids?

Probably better for older kids or teens who enjoy spooky stuff. Might be intense for little ones—if you go during daylight, it softens up the creep factor.

Do we need a guide or to book in advance?

No. You can just start whenever you want—it’s self-guided. If you go with friends or as a couple, even better. No waiting for guides or set times.

Is it fun for couples wanting a different kind of date?

Yes, totally. This makes for a memorable evening: solving creepy clues, walking through haunted spots, sharing that “wow, what was that?!” moment. Way more exciting than just dinner.
