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.

Seamus was a fantastic guide! We were six friends on a night out in Dublin and we were delighted we chose the Dark Dublin Walking Tour. It was hugely entertaining and very informative. Seamus expertly mixed historical fact and comedy with ease and kept the whole group engaged from start to finish.

On a chilly night in December, our guide Séamus (I'm probably spelling that completely wrong) took us through the dark history of Dublin as well walked through the city.
His storytelling skills coupled with the stunning locations and intriguing stories of the past makes this tour one unforgettable.
Highly recommend for anyone who is tired of average run-of-the-mill touristy tours or has a love for old history and isn't scared to face the darkness of humankind over the years.
