What makes this trip different isn't just where we go — it's how we go there. This is a fully private experience: just your group in the car, no joining strangers, no fixed scripts, no rushing between stops.

I'm someone who grew up here and genuinely enjoys showing this part of the country to people seeing it for the first time.

The dead of Cluj have been moved at least four times. They began in the churchyard by the Franciscans, went under Piața Unirii, then into the ditch below the city wall, and finally up the hill to Hajongard. This self-guided ghost walk follows them. The Questo app gives you a case file on the old town, open since 1949, and a simple brief: check what the dead say against what the city wrote down. Cluj wrote down a lot. It kept the itemised bill for executing General Baba Novac in 1601, down to the two florins paid for carving the stake. It recorded the 1565 trial of a midwife sentenced to burn "at the usual place", and never noted where that was.
