Itinerary
1
Dionysiou Areopagitou
Stroll along the most breathtaking promenade in Athens, winding alongside the Acropolis. Named after Dionysius the Areopagite, the city's first Christian convert, this historic path takes you straight into the heart of ancient Greece. Hear the very first myth of the evening—one that sets the stage for all the eerie tales to come.
20 minutes
2
Herod Atticus Odeon
Odeon of Herodes Atticus (stop outside)– This ancient theatre still hosts performances today, but long ago, a tragic king met his gruesome fate here. Will you dare to step into his role?
20 minutes
3
Apostolou Pavlou Street
Apostolou Pavlou: Shadows of Gods and Monsters.
Follow the footsteps of St. Paul along this scenic street, where myth and history intertwine. A quick game will lead you to the tragic tale of a beautiful maiden transformed into a terrifying monster.
20 minutes
4
Ancient Sanctuary Of Pan
Ancient Sanctuary of Pan (stop outside): Carved directly into the living rock, this eerie Sanctuary of Pan invites a tale of fear, transformation, and the uneasy relationship between mortals and the divine. Here, a presence emerges from the shadows—one that provokes dread not through evil intent, but through appearance.
Were the Olympian gods simply cruel?
10 minutes
5
Statue Of Theseus

Monastiraki

15 minutes
7
Hadrian's Library
Hadrian’s Library (stop outside): Built by the Roman Emperor Hadrian in 132 AD, this monumental library once safeguarded the greatest knowledge of its time. Outside its gates unfolds the final myth of the night—a story driven by powerful devotion, forbidden acts, and a defiance that forever alters human fate.
When love, loyalty, or compassion crosses the line set by the gods, is the price a cruel injustice… or a necessary punishment?
