Description
We begin our journey through the darker side of Dublin's storied history in the midst of the famous Temple Bar, before plunging into the dark heart of the old medieval city. On our ghoulish adventure through the city, we'll venture down cobbled lanes and alleyways, getting to the lesser-seen sides of some of Dublin's most famous landmarks, as well as uncover some of the city's best kept secrets, and forgotten corners. Just some of the ghastly things we'll cover on the tour are: - Bram Stoker's Dublin & some of the real-life inspirations for Dracula - Horrifying medieval crime & punishment - Grave robbing & body snatching - The banshee & the dark side of Irish mythology - Hell & The Hellfire Club - Witchcraft in Irish History - Serial Killers, Poltergeists, Headless Horsemen, & much more. . . We love Dublin, and we love showing people around Dublin. This tour is a lot of fun, whether you're interested in the chilling side of Irish History, or just want a unique way to see the city.

Itinerary
We meet in the heart of Dublin's famous Temple Bar
We'll visit the famous Dublin Castle; notorious and feared home of imperial rule for centuries in Ireland and one time workplace of one of the greatest gothic horror writers in History; Bram Stoker.
Famous victorian music hall and beloved concert venue
The Oldest Theatre in Ireland
In the heavenly shade of Dublin's oldest Cathedral once stood a sordid warren of streets known locally as 'Hell'. Playground to the rich and powerful, home of brothels and booze-houses. Here we'll meet some of the characters of this raucous (and at times violent) neighbourhood, including some who's ghoulish presence is still reputedly felt around the streets to this day.
St. Patrick's Cathedral is named after Ireland's patron saint, but it has seen more than it's fair share of sinners over the years. Here we'll hear about some of the ghostly goings on at nearby Marsh's Library, as well as hear stories from the Liberties, and the notorious 'four corners of Hell'.
Oldest public library in Irelands, nestled in the shadow of St. Patrick's Cathedral
The ruins of an old church graveyard, hidden down a dark laneway, right in the centre of the city.
One of the garrisons of the 1916 Easter Rising, flanking the west side of St Stephen's Green Park.
The most famous of Dublin's great Georgian Squares, we will visit this famous old park towards the end of our tour

The haunted tour was amazing! Our guide Ross was very knowledgeable and so much fun to walk around Dublin with! Great vibes.
Great tour and Ross, our tour guide, was amazing!! Highly recommend!!
Ross was awesome. Super knowledgeable on Dublin’s dark history. Fantastic tour. Hands down the best one we did on our 2 week trip to Ireland and Scotland. A must see for “spooky” enthusiasts interested in the dark history of Dublin.
Lee was a fantastic tour guide and did a great job taking us around Dublin! He was a great story teller and made everyone feel welcomed and included. Great way to walk around Dublin and learn some stories! Highly recommend!
Lee was our guide and he was excellent. It was a lot of fun and we learned several new things about historical Dublin. It was easy and relaxed and we both enjoyed it. Great idea for an evening starter.
Deirdre was a lovely guide! She gave a wonderful tour and even filled in some of her own stories. The tour was full of history and lore!
Lee was awesome! Great tour guide and fantastic story teller. Our group of five had a great experience!
Haunted Tour was awesome, guide was a talker and soooo knowledgeable about Dublin history. Ended up with travel delays and was able to contact owners, who were so kind to reschedule us for a different night!
Our guide was funny! This was my favorite part of my trip. I had just flown in from the US and was exhausted, however this woke me up. We went around the city and learned some cool/scary facts about the city.
