About this quest
Forget every ghost story you've heard about this city. This Halloween, ten restless spirits are loose on its streets. 👻 No history book knows their names. No tour guide has heard of them. Most are just lost souls. One is lying to you. 💀
A hooded Oracle needs a ghost hunter. Every spirit is stuck on unfinished business: solve its mystery, catch it, and it gives up a clue. Follow the trail across town, crack ciphers and riddles (some only the street itself can answer), then name the Evil One and destroy it before it finds you. 🕷️
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Ten spirits haunt the streets from Place Vendôme through Passage Choiseul and Square Louvois to Église Saint-Roch, each giving up a clue once you crack its riddle or cipher. Friends, couples, families with older kids and escape-room fans get around 90 minutes of detective work at their own pace. Those hoping to hear Paris's famous legends from a live guide should pick something else, as these ghosts are invented.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a ghost hunter game I can play in Paris?
Yes. A hooded Oracle sends you out as a ghost hunter after ten restless spirits, each stuck on unfinished business. Solve a spirit's mystery, catch it and it gives up a clue. Follow the trail, then name the Evil One among them and destroy it. One of the spirits is lying to you.
How is this different from a guided ghost tour in Paris?
There is no guide and no fixed start time. You play on your phone, the app leads you from stop to stop and sets puzzles in what is in front of you. The ghosts are not famous legends: no history book or tour guide knows their names. You can start any time and pause to continue later.
How long does it take and where does the route go?
Plan on around 90 minutes, plus any breaks you take, since you can pause and continue later. The trail passes Place Vendôme, Rue Gaillon, Passage Choiseul, Square Louvois, Rue de Montpensier, Rue Saint-Honoré, Église Saint-Roch and the old Couvent et Club des Jacobins.
Is it suitable for kids?
It suits older kids and teens best. The theme is horror and haunts, with a Halloween story about lost souls and an Evil One, and the puzzles include ciphers and riddles that take some reasoning. Younger children may find the story too dark or the puzzles too hard to enjoy.
Can we play as a group, and do we need to book a time?
Yes, one ticket covers your whole group, up to the number of devices stated for the quest. There is no time slot to book: start whenever you like, walk at your own pace and pause if you need a break. The route is outdoors on city streets, so dress for the weather.
