5 spooktacular family events in Ireland this Halloween

With mid-term holidays and Halloween just around the corner, it’s time to keep the kids entertained with a frightful family trip. Ireland is the cradle of Samhain, the Celt pagan festival leading to Halloween as we know it. As so, you won’t find a better destination to enjoy some terrifying days surrounded by ghosts, zombies, witches and your own “little monsters”.

Offering both transport and accommodation in one, a campervan not only allows you to get into the spirit of Halloween with freedom and comfort, but it can also make your experience spookier than ever! Park up in haunted forests, get some Halloween-theme decorations, drive through dark roads, watch bloodcurdling films on board… everything is possible in your home on wheels!

To help you plan your Halloween trip around Ireland, we have put together 5 unmissable events that both children and adults will be scared of!

1. Tayto Park “House of Horrors”

Located only 30 minutes away from Bunk Campers’ Dublin depot, Tayto theme park will open its House of Horrors. Bigger and bloodier than ever, it will host spine-chilling activities suitable for all ages.

2. Rathwood Halloween Train
