About this event

Who walks the corridors and courtyards of Helsinki's older buildings at night? Non-fiction author Vappu Vuori works through the city's ghost stories and what they say about the places that produced them. It lands in the middle of Finland's syysloma autumn half-term, in a museum that never charges admission, at a sensible early-evening hour.

Why we picked it

A free ghost-story evening in the Finnish autumn half-term week, three weeks before Halloween and rooted in actual city history.

Free entry

The museum states 'AINA VAPAA PÄÄSY' (always free admission); the City of Helsinki event record marks this event free (offers.is_free: true).
