Whispers in the Silent City: Creepy Tales From Mdina After Dark

Mdina is a magical old city perched high above Malta, nicknamed the Silent City because cars are mostly not allowed and it feels like stepping into a fairy tale. But in the dark, when the cobblestone streets go quiet, Mdina turns into a place of spooky stories that make you whisper…

A Headless Bride Wanders the Alleyways

One of the most famous ghost tales is about Katerina, a young woman who lived in Mdina long ago. She was forced to marry someone she did not love. After the wedding, she was beheaded, but before she died, she was allowed to marry her true love. Now, as a headless bride, she drifts through Mdina’s narrow lanes at night, dressed in her bridal gown. People say she beckons lonely hearts to follow her, or even appears in holiday photos when least expected.

Ghostly Whisper in the Cathedral

Another tale says the old priest at Mdina’s cathedral continued to celebrate Mass for three nights after he had already died. Shocked parishioners could not believe their eyes until someone realised the truth.
