Let me make this perfectly clear. If you don’t like performing in a room full of strangers, and if you don’t like total darkness and jump scares, then the Berlin Dungeon is not for you. But if you do, the ticket is worth every euro.

The Berlin Dungeon is one of the main tourist attractions close to Alexanderplatz. It is an interactive theater where you walk in a small group of audience members from stage to stage.

The stages are small rooms where an actor performs a horrifically caricatured part of 19th-century Berlin history with the noble Hohenzollern family at the center.

And you can’t avoid getting involved. You will be tortured, accused of being a witch or even worse: You will be accused of first degree murder – murder against Berlin fashion.

The lights suddenly go out and it’s completely dark. And when it comes back on, the white lady looks you straight in the eye.

You’ll be subjected to both laughs and jump scares.

Berlin Dungeon is not for children under 10 years old. It is also not for children and adults over the age of 10 who are afraid of the dark and get nightmares easily.

However, I brought my nine-year-old, who already has a morbid sense of humor and loves ghost stories. Although she was also cast in a leading role in one of the rooms, she did her part with brilliance. And she had a great time the whole way through.
