It’s that spooky time of year again, when ghouls, ghosts and witches come out of the woodwork for their annual haunting. Along with themed parties and special menus across town, children can get in the spirit with Irish storytelling and Samhain celebrations harking back to the original pagan festival.
4/12
Irish Halloween storytelling night
Celebrate
this spooky season in a traditional way with seriously scary Irish Halloween tales. The Irish
Leprechaun Museum will bring its best storytellers among
which renowned Róisín Murphy will take you back to the time of wicked
Irish fairies. The frightful púca (‘ghost’) will
entertain the whole family with age-old Irish folktales along with other mythical Irish heroes such as Celtic warrior Finn McCool. You can register the event here for free. It
takes place online on Friday, 29 October so you can enjoy the travelling in time back to the campfires of Irish storytelling heritage from the comfort
of your home.
