Hopped on the Fright Night Bus the Friday before Halloween with a friend who was visiting, and it turned out to be more than I expected! The dark tinted windows and creepy background music set the mood before the tour started. Thought the on board acting was really good! The actor interacted with the group very well, giving it a...

Saying that the lead actor gave... More

At a similar price tag, I was expecting at least a few stops around Dublin but instead all we had was a 60mins (not even the 90mins as advertised) ride around Dublin in a bus with blacked out windows. While the... More

One of the best things I've done in Dublin, the fright night tour is absolutely brilliant. The actors are captivating, the Irish folklore is fascinating and the big black bus is very atmospheric. I was scared out of my mind- but in a good way (see photographic evidence). Would recommend this to anyone who wants to do something a bit... More

The main guide recounts stories of Irish... More

The Fright Night Bus Tour was a great laugh with a couple of unexpected frights. The actors were brilliant. I was in Dublin for four nights as part of a trip around Ireland and this tour was one of the highlights of my time in Dublin. The old black bus was a real plus! More
