THE ULTIMATE 'FRIGHTSEEING' TOUR!Join dark historian Andrew Johnston of Alternative Ulstours for a new guided 'ghost bus tour' for Halloween, as we explore some of Northern Ireland's most supernaturally charged locations.
Our first port of call is the former site of Alanbrooke Hall, notorious from Danny Robins's Uncanny series, then the 'itiner-scary' turns back the millennia at the Neolithic monument to the dead that is the Giant's Ring.
Next, it's the account of a spectral court appearance, before we take the UK's officially most haunted road into west Belfast for the story of an infamous poltergeist incident.
At Belfast Castle, we unravel the case of the Cave Hill ghost, then it's lunch at spooky Mossley Mill. Refreshed, we tick off macabre destinations in Templepatrick and Doagh on our way north to Ulster's most haunted hotel and most haunted house, finally returning to Belfast as night falls.
Believer or sceptic, all are welcome on board Alternative Ulstours' Spirit Express, where history and mystery converge!
