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.

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 the role of an ancient Greek tragedian?

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.

Ancient Sanctuary Of Pan

Outside the Sanctuary of Pan, carved into the rock, uncover the legend of another infamous creature—one that may still lurk in your home today. But was its fate fair, or were the Olympian gods simply cruel?

Statue Of Theseus

Hadrian's Library

Hadrian’s Library (stop outside): A Tale of Love, Witchcraft & Betrayal Built by the Roman Emperor Hadrian in 132 AD, this grand structure once held the greatest knowledge of its time.
