Munich is no longer at peace. Flickering lights, icy winds, and whispers from the shadows haunt its streets.
Locals stay indoors, afraid of the spirit said to wander after dusk. You are the apprentice of a renowned ghost hunter, sent to solve the mystery — but now your mentor has vanished without a trace. The city is depending on you.
Explore Munich’s hidden corners and eerie landmarks as you walk, solve real-world puzzles, and follow cryptic clues to uncover the truth. This isn’t just a spooky stroll — it’s an interactive adventure to experience with friends or family, filled with tension, teamwork, and discovery. Will you succeed in sending the ghost back to the underworld… or join your mentor in the silence?

Frequently asked questions
What’s the vibe of this quest—it’s scary or more ghost-story mood?
More mood than terror. You’re the apprentice of a ghost hunter; there are whispers, shadows, creepy folklore, but not full horror. Good for those who like goosebumps, not nightmares.
What if I'm not into ghosts—still worth doing?
Yeah – even if you don’t believe in hauntings, the old legends, architecture, and puzzles make this a really atmospheric walk. Think more folklore than fear.
Are there spots along the route where I can stop for food or coffee?
Yes! There are cafés and pubs in the old town near some of the stops. You can plan a break halfway (or two), enjoy something warm, especially if you play in the evening.
Is a sunset start better than starting after dark?
Starting at sunset gives beautiful light, nice shadows, fewer people. After dark adds more mystery but also means less visibility—you choose what vibe you like.
How challenging are the puzzles—will I get stuck?
Some clues are clever, but they don’t throw you into insane riddles. There are stops where you might scratch your head, but you’ll move forward. Good mix of thinking and exploring.
