THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL GHOST TOUR.
This is something completely different—a uniquely Kyoto experience that blends creepy, fun, and thrilling storytelling with an unforgettable night out while walking around. If you’re expecting a haunted house, an asylum, or a prison tour or similar, this might not be for you!
We’ll start by grabbing a drink and dive into spine-tingling urban legends, chilling tales, and eerie events from Kyoto’s dark history. Instead of traditional yōkai or classic ghost stories, you’ll explore atmospheric streets and shadowy bamboo forests, immersing yourself in haunting tales and unique thrills.
At one point, you’ll even walk alone in the dark for a short stretch—an eerie and unforgettable moment designed to let you feel the atmosphere on your own. It’s safe, brief, but adds a delicious sense of dread to your night.
We highly recommend visiting the beautiful Kimono Forest (always open) nearby. It’s a stunning sight and a great way to set the mood for our tour.

Cần Quan Tâm
We'll meet up at Saga-Arashiyama Station, right outside the ticket gates. You won't have to go down any stairs to find us. From there, we'll swing by a convenience store to grab some drinks. Then we'll take a walk towards the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. But keep in mind, the bamboo forest will be pitch dark at this time of night, making for a unique and scary experience.
Arashiyama
Step into the darker side of Arashiyama—an area known for its stunning views by day, but haunted by whispers of the past by night. From ghostly samurai to vanished lovers and eerie legends passed down through generations, this tour reveals the unsettling truths that lie beneath the surface. Walk the same roads where strange things have happened—and still might. This experience is not for the weak.

5.00Aron was very funny. Provided oversight of Japan's great stories and made a great scary/funny environment. We have done several experiences like this in Edinburgh, Madrid and Italy. But this one takes the first place
Great, fun and different experience to do in one of Kyoto's landmarks

5.00We had a great time, Aron told great stories, between legends of lore and true crime, and with a great sense of humor despite the cold weather. Being in a forest at night is beautiful and spooky, perfect for this activity. Had such a great time that we didn't even felt the walk tiring after being walking all day in the city before that.
Lovely experience

5.00The whole experience was wonderful. The tour guides had a great sense of humor and told wonderful stories, both local and even for other cities we'll be visiting. I would highly recommend it if you enjoy the paranormal, or just a fun night stroll through the bamboo forest.
Eerie fun with laughs and lore!
