What to expect
Halloween is approaching and Ross Castle will be hosting some spooky events during Halloween week. We will have our castle suitably attired and there will be free kids tours of the castle during Mid-term break.
The tour is a fun look at how Halloween was celebrated in past times and may involve a traditional game or two - pre-internet!
The tours will be suitable for children aged 5 and older.
The tour will involve climbing an uneven spiral stairs and will last for about 30 minutes. To allow for maximum space for all we ask that just one adult accompany each child/children booking into a time slot.
Free of charge but prebooking is essential and group sizes are limited.
Prebook by emailing rosscastle@opw.ie
