"HELSINKI GHOSTS" TOUR
Overview
Although Helsinki is not a very old city and it doesn’t have medieval castles, the city has always been very international, with colorful multi-layered history that has given rise to multiple beliefs, legends, and stories passed down from generation to generation, and breathtaking stories of ghosts living in houses right here, among us. Helsinki ghosts are very multinational, and women's and men's images have characteristic differences.
During our walk, we will learn about the attitude toward ”The Other World” in Finland in the past and today. On our route, we will see several mysterious places and buildings that are even today still “famous or notorious” for their otherworldly history.
Stories about the supernatural convey people's ideas about what happens after death, and whether there are characters among us whom we cannot see, but they can see us.
These ideas change over time and are different in different cultures, so we can also talk about the attitude to this topic in your culture as well!
This excursion is a 3-hour walking tour, interesting, a little fabulous, and a little mystical. On it, you will see “ordinary historical” buildings from an unusual angle. Join if you want to tickle your nerves and have fun 😊!
