Published October 1, 2025 / Updated September 25, 2026
The Ghost Town in Örebro. A whole week of spooky events and exciting activities. For those who love thrills. For those who love cozy fun. For the whole family.

Visit the Ghost Town in Örebro—five places that will make your fall break both spookier and cozier. In Karlslund, at Örebro Castle, the Biological Museum, the Castle Park, and Wadköping, there are exciting activities taking place all week long.

The Ghost Town in Karlslund 

In the beautiful Karlslund manor district, spooky activities await during fall break week. There’s an outdoor ghost hunt all day long, and at Tekniska Kvarnen, the whole family can try their hand at brain teasers and spooky experiments. 

The Ghost Town at Örebro Castle 

It’s been a well-known fact for 700 years that the castle is haunted. But during fall break, everything is taken to the next level. During the day, it’s delightfully spooky for the whole family. In the evening, eerie surprises and chills await anyone who dares (and is over 13 years old).

The Ghost Town at the Museum of Biology

During fall break, the Old School Museum offers even more exciting exhibits than usual. Among all the stuffed animals and collections of odds and ends, a brand-new species is hiding—glow-in-the-dark ghost animals.

The Ghost Town in Slottsparken

Örebro's oldest park is celebrating fall break with its beloved skulls. There are eight large, colorful skulls, inspired by the Mexican tradition of Día de los Muertos.

The Ghost Town of Wadköping 

The old wooden neighborhoods in Wadköping are perfect for spooky adventures. Here, you can visit the haunted house, learn more about ghosts and spirits, walk the Gengångarslingan trail, and do lots of other fun and slightly spooky things.
