Great to spend some time last week with Travellernorthernireland, showing them around some of Newry’s best pubs and introducing them to some of the great local characters that make this place what it is. 🍻

There was plenty of craic, good conversation and a few great stops along the way.

There are still plenty of brilliant spots we didn’t get to this time round… so Part 2 may well be needed. 👀

Hopefully the video gives a nice boost to some fantastic local businesses.

If you get a chance, give it a watch.

Wishing a very Merry Christmas to everyone celebrating 🎄✨

Over the festive period, we’ve a small number of private tours running for anyone who’d like to experience the ghosts of Newry’s Christmas past — or for those with friends and family home and looking for something a little different to do together.

If you fancy it, just drop us a PM and we’ll take it from there. 👻❄️

Sometimes, the show must go on.

With the wind howling and rain hammering down, we could easily have called it off.

But our ghost walks run in all weather — and last night proved exactly why.

What started as a stormy, unpredictable evening turned into something truly beautiful.

The streets glistened.
The air was still.
And the stories… somehow felt even closer.

Those who joined us will know — there’s something magical about walking through Newry’s darker history when the weather itself feels alive.

Thank you to everyone who braved the night with us.
Your courage (and curiosity) did not go unnoticed. 👻

The Newry Ghost Walk returns this evening at 6pm for our final walk of the season...

Please note — there will be no tours tomorrow or Sunday.

The veil is at its thinnest.
Join us later… if you dare. 🕯️

The hangman was busy in Olde Newry…

They say his shadow still lingers by the Clanrye river, where justice and judgement once danced beneath the gallows’ creak.

Our ghost walks these last few evenings followed his footsteps — through whispers of monks, rebellious merchants, and the restless souls who never found peace.

We’re back again tonight — 8pm from Newry Town Hall.

Wrap up warm and bring those umbrellas — the rain only makes the night more alive.

Join us if you dare… for the dead do not sleep easily in this town. 🕯️👻

You’d think after all these years the ghosts would be tired of us by now… but no — last night they were in fine form. 👀

A big shoutout to Tim Murphy from Haunted Travels visiting from the States and the Finegan & Son crew who came along for the ride.

Whatever it was — the city felt alive with restless spirits again.

We’re back tonight at 8pm from Newry Town Hall — ready to uncover a few more. 👻

Last night’s Newry Ghost Walk did not disappoint — chills, laughs, and a few nervous giggles as we wandered through the city’s darker stories. 👻

Huge thanks to every brave soul who joined us and brought the craic (and courage!) — you were brilliant.

We’re back tonight at 8pm from Newry Town Hall. Wrap up warm… and join us if you dare. 🕯️

What a week it’s been on the ghost walks! 👻

From curious youth groups to brave adults facing the dark corners of Newry’s history, it’s been another week filled with storytelling, laughter, and a fair few chills in the night air.

We'll never take these experiences for granted — being able to share our city’s stories with people of all ages is something truly special.

Over 15 years of running tours, we've seen first-hand how storytelling connects us.

A massive thank you to NEWRY BID for their continued support — helping keep the spirit of our city’s heritage alive and accessible.

Now… on to a very busy Halloween week ahead! 🎃👻

Seen here with the brave souls from Whitegates Community group earlier this evening. 👏

It's all fun and games until there's a poltergeist at your door...👻🫣Or worse in bed with you... 🤯
