Return Details

Returns to original departure point
After the sun’s descent shrouds the city in darkness, venture to a central Dublin location in order to climb aboard your ghoulish ghost bus. Sink back into your seat and feel your heart rate quicken as your guide sets the sinister scene in the haunted city. 

Commence your supernatural sojourn by visiting the Royal College of Surgeons, home to the restless ghost of an unethical doctor; listen out for his heavy footsteps before gaining fascinating insight into Dublin’s connection with Dracula author Bram Stoker. Listen as your guide recounts more terrifying tales of torture, are you brave enough?

Next, and visit the haunted steps of St Audoens Church and engage with tales of vicious medieval torture methods. Then, disembark the bus to explore the eerie enclave of St. James’ Graveyard. 

Stroll the spooky site alongside your guide and watch demonstrations of how grave robbers would have brutally snatched corpses from the ground. Discover the specters said to haunt the area and scan the landscape for ethereal apparitions before returning to the comfort of the bus.     

Conclude your tour at the original departure point, bidding farewell to your guide after your chilling excursion.

I thought this was going to be cheesy, and it kind of was but it was really fun. The guide is a great entertainer and the stories were interesting. Our group ranged in age from 22 to 78, and we all enjoyed it very much.

This was a lot of fun. Not terribly spooky because it was still light but pretty informative. I had my 16 year old granddaughter with me and she really liked it.

We booked the tour on our first day in...

We booked the tour on our first day in Dublin and picked the late night one - even though we were both very tired by the time the tour started we were impressed with our guide Louisa this was only her second week and she could have been acting the tours for years. On boarding the bus we walked round the maze on the lower deck - not fully what I was expecting, I thought it would be longer and more of a maze, instead it was just a quick turn round the corner and up to the top. The tour itself is a mix of comedy and ghost tails, mostly comedy however. We sat on the wrong side of the bus to see outside during the stops - the windows make it difficult to see. I enjoyed the underground tour of the castle and the final graveyard stop. There is some audience participation required and you may get picked on to take part - not really something I would like, lucky i didn't get picked!. Overall this was a fun tour! The weather was good and the stop off points made the tour more interesting than the version I went on in London. The guide, Louisa, was very entertaining and made the experience what it was! :-

The tour was great. Our guide Vincent was amazing: he told us lots of scary and interesting stories about the places we visited. We also got to see the castle and a cemetery. The atmosphere was spooky. I really enjoyed the tour and would recommend it if you want to see another side of Dublin.
