Haunted Museum of Borås

Hidden in the industrial city of Borås stands the Hemsökt Museum: Sweden’s first and only museum devoted entirely to haunted and cursed objects and paranormal history.

Founded by the ghost-hunting brothers Tony Martinsson and Niclas Laaksonen of LaxTon Ghost Sweden, the museum houses hundreds of artifacts collected from haunted locations around the world.

Visitors walk through dimly lit rooms filled with mirrors that refuse to stay silent, dolls that seem to watch, and personal belongings said to carry the residual energy of their former owners. Each item is accompanied by a story: sometimes tragic, sometimes inexplicable.

The museum hosts both daytime tours and nocturnal events, where guests can experience the unsettling stillness of its halls after dark. Whether you believe in the paranormal or not, the Hemsökt Museum offers a chilling look into Sweden’s growing fascination with what lingers beyond the veil.
