Frightful week of spooks and scary Halloween events

Scaredy-cats of all ages are in for a frightfully good time over the next few days as Monday’s bank holiday, the mid-term break and Halloween merge into a week-long October horror-fest.

Dublin is going gothic for the third annual Bram Stoker Festival, which takes the legacy of the Irish writer and his gothic novel Dracula as its inspiration. Highlights include a gothic ball and a street spectacle by Macnas.

Have you seen what @bramstokerdub have done to the statues on O'Connell ? #bitemedublin #Enjoyyourcity pic.twitter.com/Xo4wfg9r8g” #LoveDublin
