Description

Uncover the chilling secrets of Barcelona on a guided walking tour through the city’s atmospheric Gothic Quarter. Led by an expert storyteller, you’ll explore narrow alleys and hidden plazas where real tales of torture, terror, and true crime unfolded in Spain’s storied past.

As you wander through this labyrinth of history, your guide will reveal the horrors of the Spanish Inquisition and the shadowy legacy of Henriqueta Martí, the infamous “Vampire of Barcelona.” Each stop brings the city’s darkest chapters to life with gripping, well-researched accounts.

Visit the haunting Cathedral of Barcelona, whose gothic architecture and historic events echo with stories of martyrdom and medieval injustice. Continue to Plaça del Rei, a site marked by Inquisition trials, executions, and whispered legends of mass burials during times of plague.

The tour also leads you to the Via Sepulcral Romana, an ancient necropolis where Roman citizens were laid to rest, adding a somber and eerie layer to Barcelona’s rich tapestry. Every location is accessible, ensuring all travelers can immerse themselves in these unforgettable stories.

This two-hour experience is perfect for fans of true crime, history, and dark tourism seeking something deeper than a typical ghost tour. Secure your spot now to step into Barcelona’s real haunted past—spaces fill quickly, so check availability and book today!
