Join us for a horrifying journey through the darker side of Dublin’s storied history.
From the dark heart of the old medieval city, through Georgian grandeur and Victorian decay; if Dublin’s walls could talk, some of their tales would not be for the faint-of-heart.
From grave robbers to satanic rituals, serial killers and everything in between, this is a tour you won’t be able to forget.
On our ghoulish adventure through the city, you will venture down cobbled lanes and alleyways, stripping away the layers of modernity and stepping into Victorian Dublin; a place where behind the ornate facades and fanlights, lurks darkness at every turn.
You will uncover some of the city’s best-kept secrets and forgotten corners. You will visit some of Dublin’s most famous landmarks, and see them in a new and eerie light.
