Explore Dublin’s gruesome stories of murder, torture, cannibalism, grave robbing, brothels, proposals to eat young children, unearthly worship and much more!
We start our journey at Dublin Castle, where we will explore the torture of the past, speak of priest hunters and unearth why the upper courtyard was nicknamed the Devil’s Half Acre but behind the beautiful architecture is a brutal past.
From here we’ll take the side streets to hear stories of cannibalism and of proposals to eat babies.
As we delve further into Dublin’s dark past, we’ll enter an area once known as Hell. Uncover stories of brothels, witches, and the infamous Hellfire Club.
Passing by the old city walls we’ll learn of grave robbing, The Black Pig, and finish with the very unusual case of a strangler and killer with no legs.
Join us on this 2-hour walking tour as we weave our way through the city streets and back alleys to uncover Dublin’s Dark past.

Killian was an excellent tour guide and story teller. The dark history of Dublin he shared was very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a more colorful (gruesome) side of the city.

Cillian was a fantastic story teller - the whole tour was laughing and enthralled at the horrors he told. We learned a lot about Irish history, explored the main sites of Dublin and had the most handsome tour guide on the way. My friend had a knee injury and he made it his goal to keep them comfortable and not put too much strain on their knee. 100% would recommend!

Killian killed it - pun intended. The tour was informative, funny, and just the right amount of dark. Definitely would recommend

Cillian is an excellent guide. He made sure we could all hear and that we were engaged. Well done! The castle and Billy in the Bowl were my favorite.

Killian is a fantastic guide! He told great stories and made us laugh all the way through! I’m not usually into scary stories, but the stories were well told - 100% recommend to all.

Our tour guide did a great job of explaining the history of each site. We all had a great time. My husband did the same tour last year when he came, and he said that there was some new stuff that they didn't talk about on his tour.

Ciaron was a great story teller
We walked around areas of Dublin we'd not walked and we were very impressed, especially because of the gruesome stories Ciaron told us. Great creepy tingles from the stories
