Bangkok Shadows: Ghosts, Haunted Temples & Dark Secrets

Bangkok hides many faces. Beneath its glowing temples and bustling markets lies a darker city — one built on crimes, executions, and shadows that refuse to fade. Tonight, on this storytelling tour, you’ll walk streets haunted by killers, plague victims, and restless spirits, where echoes of the past still linger.

The journey begins at Golden Mount, meeting at Romsai Coffee. From there, you’ll explore Wat Saket, a site with a grim history that shaped the city’s darker side. Next, enjoy a traditional dinner at Phi Rong Temple, rooted in Thai customs of feeding and honoring the dead. Each stop brings stories of Bangkok’s past, blending history, legend, and chilling accounts into a narrative you will never forget.

The tour continues to Samranrat Ghost Gate, historically the only exit for the dead in Bangkok. From there, you move to Suan Rommaneenart Prison, a former site of punishment, imprisonment, and executions, where echoes of horror still linger. Then, visit Wat Thepsirin, once the main crematorium for criminals, outcasts, and the disgraced, before concluding at the Giant Swing and Wat Suthat, locations that hold centuries of rituals, accidents, and local legends.

Your guide will lead you through streets marked by executions, haunted gates, prisons, and temples, narrating chilling tales of crime, death, and restless spirits. This is more than a walk — it is a fully immersive storytelling experience, bringing Bangkok’s darkest history to life through vivid accounts and eerie legends.

Bring a camera or phone to capture moments that may slip past your eyes. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes, and carry a little cash for personal needs. Alcohol, drugs, and heavy bags are forbidden — weakness is dangerous here. Food and drinks are included, but remember: tonight, what you eat was once meant for the dead.

As the tour ends, the city grows quiet again. But Bangkok never forgets its killers, victims, or the condemned. You may feel it — unseen footsteps behind you, whispered chains, the sigh of the dead. Crime and spirits are bound together here, forever. This tour is not for the faint of heart, but for those brave enough to walk Bangkok’s shadows and hear its stories.
