Uncover the darker stories Dublin has to offer on this guided tour through the city's sinister side. This experience explores murder, torture, grave robbing, brothels and the unsettling beliefs that once shaped life in the Irish capital.
Our journey begins at Dublin Castle, where beneath the architecture lies a brutal past of punishment and fear. Discover the tools of torture once used here, hear about priest hunters, and learn why the Upper Courtyard earned the nickname the Devil’s Half Acre.
Venturing deeper into the old city, we enter an area once known as Hell. We explore Dublin’s world of brothels, witches, dark rituals and the infamous Hellfire Club.
This walking tour of Dublin offers a unique way to explore the city’s history through its cobbled streets and churches. Ideal for people looking for dark history and an authentic local experience.

Best Dark History Tour I’ve Taken

5.00This tour was immensely interesting, and the time passed quickly. It was a great blend of historical recounting mixed with mythological beliefs sprinkled in, and an explanation of how the conflicts at the time set the backdrop to each grim event. The route was planned exceptionally well, ending a short distance from where it begins; the distance and terrain would be appropriate for anyone without mobility issues. The stories told on the tour were very interesting and ones I had never heard before. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in the topics of torture, killing, and some sinful history. Anyone who is a bit squeamish may want to skip this tour though, and opt for this company’s regular history tour.
Fun history lesson.

5.00Our tour guide was amazing (sorry I can’t remember his name) . We had a lot of people in our group and he did an excellent job making sure everyone stayed with the group and could hear him clearly. He was very knowledgeable and made the tour fun and interesting. Would highly recommend.

Murder, mayhem and a dash of humor

5.00This was a fantastic tour! We love taking ghost tours in different cities, and I loved that this was a walking tour instead of the bus offered in other options. Kieran (I think that was his name? I may have forgotten!) was so entertaining and engaging. He went beyond simply ghost stories to tell us more about the various nefarious goings on in historical Dublin. Loved that we got to see some of the most beautiful and important sites in the city and learn more about them. Though things got a bit dark, my 12 year old absolutely loved it. A healthy dose of humor helped. We had a great time and would recommend to anyone visiting the city!
Very good tour
