Om
Raske fakta: An eerie 19th-century Gothic Revival castle shaped like a pentagram stands surrounded by 50 acres of woodland. Legend has it that the castle hosts Ireland's longest running ghost tour with tales from centuries past.
Høydepunkter: A truly fascinating feature is the pentagram floor plan and the dark history tied to the 5 pointed design, meant to protect the family from evil spirits. At night, the castle's dimly lit corridors and flickering candlelight create an atmosphere perfect for ghost stories and paranormal exploration.
Insidertips
- Wear sturdy shoes for uneven floors and woodland trails.
- Top photography spots include the pentagram-shaped floor from the upper gallery.
- Avoid weekends during summer holidays for fewer crowds.
- Do not miss the guided ghost tour; it reveals stories not found in usual tours.
