The Spooktacular Summoning
The Spooktacular Summoning
Step into the Otherworld… if you dare
This immersive Halloween experience brings audiences deep into the heart of Irish myth, folklore, and Celtic ritual. Rooted in the ancient traditions of Samhain, the event reawakens the stories our ancestors told — when the veil between worlds was thin, and the living and the dead walked side by side.
Visitors will journey into the haunting realm of the Otherworld: lured by the fairy folk, the Daoine Sí, whose whispers tempt them to cross the veil; chilled by the piercing wail of the Banshee echoing through a lonely farmhouse; unsettled by ominous meetings at the crossroads; and drawn into the dark rites of hags and wise women. In the forge, iron is struck against fate itself as the headless rider draws near. The museum itself becomes a haunted house of legend, echoing the pages of Henry Ferris’s tales. The night reaches its climax in a fire ceremony led by the Púca, summoning spirits and marking the turning of the Celtic year.
Through storytelling and performance, the old beliefs of Ireland are brought vividly to life — fairies, banshees, spirits, and shapeshifters return to remind us of a time when every flicker of wind or flame carried meaning.
More than just a Halloween show, this is a journey into the dark half of the year, where endings and beginnings intertwine, and the echoes of Ireland’s past speak once more
