Dublin Castle has a lot of history and is a very important historical sight in Dublin. However, it (and its environs)have a couple of aspects, which are mystery/esoteric related. So hear about them with me and maybe one will have to start a mini 'Da Vinci Code of Dublin'.

On my tours, there is always something different, and the above is such an example...

On my Walking tours of Dublin, we pass through Merrion Square Park (one of Dublin's Georgian Squares); hear about how the Park was inextricably linked during the Great Irish Famine of the 1840's with a French Chef and his Soup Kitchen of the time! Quirkiness is never far away when one is narrating the story of Dublin!

On my historical and literary tours in Ireland's capital city, I take people to hidden places; one example of such hidden places are haunted sights.

The list of haunted sights ranges from a Library, houses of a Gothic writer and a revolutionary patrio to a park! Small wonder, Dublin has a charm of its own and has a special pedigree. Also hear about Gothic writers who specialised in books with ghosts and hauntings as their theme, and how the vampire of Stoker's Dracula may have its roots in Gaelic mythology!
