About

When the gas lamps flickered and the streets were choked with smoke, Victorian and Edwardian Belfast was a city of industry, poverty, and danger. Behind the grand façades and bustling markets lay a darker world—of brutal murders, shadowy alleyways, and restless spirits that, some say, never left.

This atmospheric evening walking tour takes you through the historic streets and hidden entries of Belfast's city centre, where chilling crimes shocked the public and ghostly tales still linger in the air.

Hear the true stories of Belfast's notorious killings, public executions, and unsolved mysteries. Stand at the very spots where Victorian police detectives hunted then caught their suspects before seeing them hanged and where ordinary streets became scenes of extraordinary violence and murders.
