Each tour lasts between 1.5 and 2 hours and is packed with surprises along the way. Guests are encouraged to dress up for the occasion and join the onboard storytellers in solving eerie mysteries—and even trying their hand at some old torture devices!
Dark Museum Experience
What began as a cult favourite on Twitter has been hauntingly brought to life in Dublin. The Museum of Curiosities opens its doors to a world that feels straight out of American Horror Story—where every corner hides a tale, every object whispers its own dark secret, and twists lurk when you least expect them.
Described by some as a living nightmare, the museum is home to everything from a two-headed cow to haunted dolls—an unsettling yet fascinating collection that guarantees chills around every corner.
Ghostly Views
For those looking for an outdoor scare, the Horror Hike takes you deep into the eerie legends and ghostly tales of the Dublin Mountains. Trek to the summit of Montpelier Hill, explore the infamous Hellfire Club, and immerse yourself in an unreal setting where history, myth, and the supernatural combine.
Board the Banshee bus for a short ride to a mysterious location, where you’ll have the chance to snap cool photos at a number of scenic viewpoints.
Spirits of the City
Step into the shadows of the city on the Dublin Legends Ghosts and Ghouls Tour. Discover the terrifying tales that haunt Dublin’s streets and explore harrowing buildings in the heart of the city. These chilling stories were once told around fires—on this walking tour, you’ll experience them in the very spaces where the real-life spooky events took place.
Touch on Dublin's darkest characters from Darkey Kelly and her basement of bodies to the grisly hangings near St. Stephen’s Green. Hear tales of The Dolocher, the Demon Pig of Dublin,and more details that bring the city’s haunted past vividly to life.
