Step into the shadows of Dublin this Halloween season with An Irish Halloween, a guided evening walking tour through the heart of the city. As dusk falls, your guide will lead you through historic streets and hidden corners, weaving together chilling tales of folklore, ghostly legends, and the origins of Samhain — the ancient Irish festival that gave birth to Halloween.
The tour concludes in a cosy Dublin café, where you’ll gather for a modern take on the Silent Supper — a tradition where food was once left out for wandering spirits. Instead of ghosts, you’ll enjoy mulled wine, cheese, crackers, and sweet Halloween treats — the perfect way to honor the season and warm up after your journey ...

Itinerary
1
GPO Museum
Welcome to An Irish Halloween. Tonight we’ll peel back the layers of Dublin and discover the city’s hidden side — where Samhain, the Celtic New Year, lingers in the shadows, and where tales of restless spirits are whispered on the wind. Halloween began here in Ireland, and tonight we’ll walk in its footsteps…

Many Dubliners have claimed to see a woman in a dark cloak crossing this bridge late at night. Some say she walks to the middle, then vanishes into the Liffey itself…
10 minutes
