Dublin is a city with over 2,000 years of history layered into its streets, and where there is that much history, there are ghosts. This two-hour evening walking tour - conducted entirely in French - takes you through the darker corners of the capital, where stories of apparitions, restless spirits, and unexplained encounters have been whispered for centuries.
Your guide leads you through atmospheric lanes and shadowy churchyards as the tales unfold. At the Black Church, you will hear why locals say you should never walk around it three times after dark. At St Audeon’s, one of Dublin’s oldest churches, a mysterious stone has drawn curiosity and superstition for generations. The story of the Green Lady and her dangerous pub is genuinely unsettling, and the tales from Marsh’s Library - where love stories took a dark turn - add an unexpected emotional edge to the evening.
The route also ventures into Dublin’s grim history of science and medicine, the fearsome reputation of the Hellfire Club, and the little ghost said to haunt the corridors of the Shelbourne Hotel. By the time you reach Connolly Station and its wartime ghosts, you will see Dublin’s familiar streets in an entirely different light.
