Lurk around in the Castle District after dark, unravelling its hidden corners and bloody history. The Vampire Tour takes you back in time to the 15th and 17th centuries with the help of a professional storyteller in period costume. His lantern will guide your way along silent streets and around sinister corners, and he will tell legends and lore. You will learn about two mad figures: Vlad Dracula, 'the impaler' and Elizabeth Báthory, 'the blood countess' and reveal their despicable actions. You will hear about cases of vampirism in old Hungary, which gave birth to myths that lie between fantasy and chilling truth during the darkest periods of the history of Eastern Europe. While listening to all the creepy but capturing stories, don't miss to look around: the walk comes with magical views from the top of the hill.
