Itinerary

About this tour, from the operator

Dark Madrid: Mysteries, Blood and Terror

No other tour plunges you so deeply into the cruelest and bleakest face of Madrid. Along its streets you will discover stories of terrorism, murders, satanic rituals, witches, suicides, mysteries and ghosts that still shake today.

Where tourists now stroll and calm reigns, others lived genuine nightmares. Come and dare to walk between dark legends and real events that forever marked the history of the city.

Important: this payment secures your place. The contribution to the guide is made at the end of the tour, according to your satisfaction.
