For those seeking an unforgettable Halloween adventure like no other, there’s no place more fitting than the historical Ballygally Castle, Northern Ireland. Nestled amidst the enchanting landscapes of the Antrim coast, the real-life haunted castle invites guests to embrace the thrill of the season with a spooky overnight offer with a special guest and a devilish afternoon tea.
With its rich history and unique character, the castle at Ballygally Castle is renowned as one of the most haunted places in Northern Ireland. Legend has it that Lady Isabella, wife of James Shaw who built Ballygally Castle, was locked in a room at the top of the castle after Shaw snatched their son away, leaving her to die tragically while attempting to escape. Another ghost is known for knocking on bedroom doors late at night and for the rustling of a silk dress in the corridors. Some believe it is the playful spirit of Madam Nixon, who came to stay at the castle after her husband’s death. While the Ghost Room in the tower can still be visited, no guests are allowed to stay there anymore, adding to the mystique and allure of this remarkable castle.
Guests can embark on the hotel’s unique ‘Ghostly Nights & Delicious Delights’ package, thoughtfully crafted to provide moments of eerie delight. They can indulge in a Halloween-themed afternoon tea filled with delightful treats and savory snacks, showcasing a charming blend of flavours and treats that draw inspiration from age-old ghost stories. As the sun sets, guests can retire to their comfortable rooms, where the echoes of ghosts add to the mysterious ambience before waking up to hearty full Irish breakfast.
