Korea's most popular ghost tour! One of the top things to do in Seoul. This is the side of Seoul that you won’t find in the tourism brochures. Take a tour down the dark alleys of Seoul's forgotten 600-year history of bloody massacres, seedy hideaways and mourning ghosts. Self-proclaimed clairvoyants on the tour have reported a few sightings, including a little girl who has been seen following the group around. This is not only a ghost tour, but a walk unearthing Seoul's murky and violent past, making the city much more interesting and intimate. Guests also receive an online map of all the haunts, murder sites, and torture chambers mentioned on the tour.

Dark side of Seoul

5.00I'm a fan of ghost stories, urban legends and folklore. I don't know much about Korean folklore, so this was a perfect oppurtunity for me to learn. Was it spooky? Yes. Was it chilly? Yes. Do I recommend? Absolutely!
Cool

5.00We have done ghost tours around the world and this was one of the best. It is not because we saw several ghosts. Instead, it is because we heard fascinating stories about real events and real people that have lived in the folklore of Korea. Shawn Morrissey is a fantastic guide with a depth of knowledge and the ability to tell a story. We took the extended tour and it seemed to end too soon. Shawn kept the tour moving and the information flowing.
Amazing spooky nighttime tour!

5.00Shawn tailored the tour to our interests since we were a small group and gave us bonus stories from personal experiences. The palace grounds at night were spooky and beautiful. He did a great job of setting the mood and giving us cultural context for his stories. Apparently other tour group members have reported supernatural experiences during the tour, so if you're hoping to see a real ghost there might be a chance!
Wow

5.00What an amazing and unique experience! Shawn has so much knowledge about folk traditions and ghost lore! I appreciated how he answered our random questions about these topics in such a thoughtful and insightful way. I also appreciated that the stories were based on actual research from multiple sources, and it was interesting to learn how these stories connect to folk traditions, culture, and history. On another note, even though it is a walking experience, we were able to sit down at various times of the walk while Shawn educated us on these topics so it wasn’t tiring! I definitely recommend this educational walk to everyone!
Worth it whether you believe or not

5.00It was a surprisingly fun walking tour. I didn't really know what to expect and I personally don't even believe in ghosts but it was still really interesting and entertaining learning about what other people believe as well as a lot of historical superstitions and stuff. Shawn was very knowledgeable as well about folklore and traditions and stuff so the experience was also educational. I personally didn't get scared but my girlfriend was creeped out for sure.
