Highlights

Dare to peel back Madrid’s polished veneer on the Madrid Oscuro Horror Night Tour, a chilling plunge into the city’s darkest shadows. This isn’t just a walk—it’s a 2.5-hour descent through blood, terror, and history, uncovering the Spanish Inquisition’s brutal grip, tales of murders, witches, satanic rituals, suicides, and restless ghosts. Where you stroll calmly today, others once faced their worst nightmares, and your expert guide, armed with theatrical flair, resurrects those screams. From Puerta del Sol’s eerie past to the cursed corners of Plaza Mayor, it’s a night of unrelenting suspense that no other tour dares to match.


Meet at Puerta del Sol under the yellow-and-orange umbrella—look for the horse statue and Tío Pepe sign—kicking off at dusk, rain or shine. Weave through Madrid’s haunted alleys, hearing of Inquisition tortures, spectral sightings, and crimes that defy reason. This free-tour-style experience lets you tip based on the shivers it delivers—recommended for those 16+, but all brave souls are welcome. Bring comfy shoes, a camera, and a steady heart. Printed maps and photos deepen the dread. Book now and face Madrid’s gloomiest face—where history’s horrors still whisper in the night.
