What makes The Headless Horseman in Stockholm: Self-Guided Walking Tour Game a unique experience ?
This self-guided walking tour game starts at Slottskajen, outside the Royal Palace and the Three Crowns museum. Once you are there, open the app and start the Headless Horseman walking tour game. You have come to the Royal Palace to meet two people you've gotten to know through an online ghost hunter forum. They have invited you to join an investigation of the 200-year-old disappearance of Ichabod Crane. But, as you stand waiting, only one of your new friends show up outside the palace...
You'll walk through Stockholm's Old Town area during this tour. This island is the original city of Stockholm, as the city was first established here in the 1200's.
You and your companion head over to Solgränd, and the building where Ichabod once lived, to see if you can find clues to his disappearance, and maybe even find your friend.
You have met with a witness, who had a scary encounter with the Headless Horseman. She points you towards Mårten Trotzig's alley, which is the most narrow alley in Stockholm. You will be able to stand in the alley and touch both opposite walls at the same time. You walk up the alley to investigate some strange noises...
Your friend is still missing, but you are desperately trying to find her. A passage of Ichabod's journal leads to the Gustav Vasa statue. Gustav Vasa was the King of Sweden during 1523-1560 and lead the Swedish War of Liberation following the Stockholm Bloodbath, where his father was executed.
You reach the Riddarholmen church, which is the church of the former medieval Greyfriars Monastery. Parts of it dates back to the late 13:th century. This seems to be the last location where Ichabod was seen, and traces from your friend lead you here as well. What will you discover outside the church that might clear up both disappearances?
