Samhain at MoLI

Samhain at MoLI

About the event

As the veil thins at Samhain, join us for a journey through the hidden folklore, horrors and spirits of our house on St Stephen's Green. From Saturday 24 to Saturday 31 October, MoLI (Museum of Literature Ireland) celebrates Samhain with haunted daily literary tours. Explore MoLI's darker side. You'll encounter Burn-Chapel Whaley and the Hellfire Club, and come face-to-face with the death masks of Patrick Kavanagh and Brendan Behan. We'll trace the Irish roots of Dracula and explore the changelings, fairy hills and ghost stories that run through Irish writing. And if you feel a chill on the landing, well, we did warn you.

Tickets are €18 and include all-day museum admission. Kids go free *(up to two children per paying adult).
