12 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.5 average  ·  from $6

Famine, plague pits, body snatchers and a very well-documented gallows. These 12 walks trade on real history rather than jump scares, with lengths, prices and how much of each is outdoors in the rain.

6.Hidden Dublin: Haunted History Walking Tour v2.0 2026

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 188 reviews · 1 hour 50 minutes (approx.) · from $30

A small-group Dublin night walk through Viking Northside and notorious legends, from Darkey Kelly to the Hellfire Club and Brazen Head.

“It was terrible. Only 2 ghosts mentioned, 1 that put old coins into the the hands of sleeping homeless people and a poltergeist, but no stories. The rest of the time it was a left wing poticical attack on the British and Donald Trump. He said he had a masters degree in? But if you took away You know and All that stuff from his script, there would not be much left. He showed up late and didn't check who the guests were. He even mentioned that a lot of people left before the end. Viator obviously do not check the quality of the guides or their scripts anymore!”
