Your journey begins in the historic capital with a deep dive into Dublin’s darker side. Explore the chilling corridors of Kilmainham Gaol, step inside St. Audoen’s Church and its centuries-old legends - be sure to touch the tombstone said to be protected by supernatural forces and bring good luck. Descend into the mummified crypt beneath St. Michan’s and venture into the vast underground vaults of Christ Church Cathedral. End your first night with dinner and live music at The Brazen Head, Ireland’s oldest and most haunted pub.
Uncover more of Dublin’s haunted past with visits to Dublin Castle, where spirits of former prisoners are said to linger, and the atmospheric Trinity College Library, home to the treasured Book of Kells and stories of ghostly scholars. Continue to the Guinness Storehouse to pour the perfect pint before dining at the Hellfire-inspired restaurant. Finish the night on a theatrical Ghost Bus Tour, roaming Dublin’s most sinister hotspots.
Journey into Ireland’s midlands with a whiskey tour of the haunted Kilbeggan Distillery, where ghostly workers are rumoured to remain on duty. Later, settle into your hotel before embarking on an exclusive overnight paranormal investigation at Charleville Castle, notorious for the spirit of young Harriet and other lingering presences.
Visit the sacred 7th-century ruins of Kilmacduagh Monastery, a place where the veil between worlds feels unusually thin. Continue to the dramatic Cliffs of Moher, a site steeped in myth and faerie lore. Here, legends speak of hidden realms, enchanted pipers, and banshee wails echoing through the Atlantic wind. Enjoy a peaceful evening to unwind after a day of myth and mystery.
After a flexible morning of exploring, enjoy a regal dinner at Kinnitty Castle, famed for its monkly apparitions and ghostly footsteps. As night falls, prepare for a chilling private investigation at Leap Castle, widely considered Ireland’s most haunted fortress. Will you encounter the dreaded Elemental within its darkened halls?
Travel south to Cobh for your next haunted chapter. Wander the gardens and cursed corners of Blarney Castle, including the infamous Poison Garden, kiss the Blarney Stone to receive the gift of eloquence before exploring the eerie corridors of Cork City Gaol, where lifelike mannequins and lingering spirits blur the line between past and present.
Step into Titanic history at the Titanic Experience Cobh, the last stop of the Titanic before its fateful journey. Then cross the waters to the foreboding Spike Island, known as “Ireland’s Alcatraz.” Its prison blocks and underground corridors have witnessed centuries of suffering—and countless paranormal encounters.
Head to Wexford for a stop at the infamous Loftus Hall, the site of Ireland’s most famous Devil encounter. Continue to Hook Lighthouse, the world’s oldest operational Lighthouse, long associated with shipwrecks and supernatural sightings. That evening, experience a rare private investigation at McCarthy’s Pub & Undertakers, where the spirits of patrons and clients are said to linger.
Travel north to explore Malahide Castle, home to multiple resident ghosts, including the playful Puck and the sorrowful Lady in White. Conclude the evening with a relaxing dinner by the sea, where Irish hospitality meets coastal mystique.
Begin with breakfast at Timbertrove Café before embarking on a haunted hike to the notorious Hellfire Club atop Montpelier Hill, a site linked to occult rituals, dark legends, and banshee sightings. Conclude your paranormal pilgrimage with a farewell dinner, sharing stories, evidence, and encounters gathered along your journey.
