About this event

Ireland has a unique relationship with its legendary past. Kept alive in the histories of the Filí and the Seanchaidhe, Ireland’s gods were not destroyed but - in the words of Mark Williams - demoted to lesser beings.

Come explore with us where these two elements fuse to create the wonderful world of Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls that are just as much a part of Dublin’s history as any of its citizens and buildings…

Topics include:

Maud Gonne & WB Yeats

The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn

Huguenot Cemetery

The Ghost of the Shelbourne

St. Stephen’s Green’s Grizzly History

Bram Stoker

Graverobbers

Darkey Kelly

Dublin’s House of Horrors

Tenements

Justice in Dublin
