It is the seat of the High Kings of Munster and where Irish hero Brian Boru was crowned. It just so happens that the ancient Rock of Cashel in Ireland is located where the veil between the earthly and other realm is at its thinnest, so imagine what it is like on Halloween!

The eve of All Hallows is the point in the year where the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. If you dare to visit us at a time where the Sidhe, spirits and the twisted creatures of the other realm can roam freely, these are the places you can visit!

With that in mind, where better to spend the Samhain festival and the eve of All Hallows?! The carved pumpkin face was a hollowed out turnip to hold a burning ember, used for Samhain fire and protect from the darkness.

Home to the ancient festival of Samhain, the traditions of dressing up on 31 st October were actually disguises to hide from the demonic entities and ghouls who rose from the underworld.

You know Halloween originated in Ireland, right?
