Overview

At dusk, when the sun sets over Madrid, spectres from the past stretch like long shadows, veiling the city with stories of hatred and persecution. On this evening tour, a lantern will guide your way through the cobbled alleys and squares of the Madrid of the Habsburgs, passing by churches, monasteries and places where jails and gallows once stood. As you explore the most infamous corners of the city, you will learn gruesome historical facts and hear chilling ghost stories, told by the voice of an elegant narrator, who will also share the most intimate, atrocious and untold aspects of the Spanish Inquisition, that Holy Tribunal that so often led to a knock at the door under the cover of darkness… Enjoy this city with us.

Excellent tour

If you love the dark side of history, this is for you. Our guide was Elizabeth and she really brought the stories to life. It's not just stories about the Inquisition, but also you're told other fascinating stories and facts. I've been on many ghost walks and tours and this one is one of the best.
