Pictured are Transport Minister Paschal Donohoe and actor Gary Egan who launched a brand new custom built Ghostbus that will take Dubliners and tourists alike on a thrilling ride tracing Dublin’s creepiest mysteries this Halloween weekend.

The world’s first custom built Ghostbus and first Ghostbus tour has a new addition to its fleet after its oldest member was retired earlier this year ending 42 years of service to Dublin Bus. The tour creeps through Dublin’s darkened streets taking in the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, where a certain Dr. Clossey is still said to roam the corridors carrying a bucket of human entrails, then stopping at the Christchurch crypts, the scene of medieval torture, for a lesson in grave robbing and bodysnatching with a final visit to one of Dublin’s most unnerving cemeteries St. James graveyard.

The Dublin Bus Ghostbus will spirit visitors away to a world of felons, fiends and phantoms for over two hours of hair-raising frightsTours depart from Dublin Bus Headquarters on O’Connell Street and operate Monday to Thursday 8pm, Friday & Saturday 7pm & 9.30pm
