Join us for our unique 8 hour tour in our witch & ghost themed taxibus, as we explore along the North coast, while your qualified tour guide regales you with the frightful stories of fairies, ghosts, highwaymen, witches and legends: including a visit to the area of where the only mass witch trial in Ireland took place...we've been telling their accurate story for over 2 years now...the infamous Islandmagee witches. We will pay a visit to the ghost room in Ballygally Castle, you'll hear an insider ghost story of an old mill not known by others, tie a ribbon to a fairy tree in the hope of good luck, hear the tale of the ghostly nun of Bonmargy, and other mystical stories. Explore ancient graveyards, and search for the grey lady of the famous dark hedges, along with other sites of mystery and accused witch stories along the way.
And as I'm also a paranormal investigator, you'll also hear of stories and experiences that aren't found anywhere else. ​
​
​Because we take smaller groups, we have more time to stop at places.
​12 stops plus 9 stories of legends and myths as we pass by the sites.
