About
A guided storytelling attraction just off Jervis Street where families move through a series of themed rooms while a storyteller performs Irish myths, legends, and folklore. The visit is fully guided rather than self-led, with each daytime tour lasting around 45–50 minutes. It relies heavily on listening and imagination rather than displays, so children need to be able to follow spoken stories in English to get the most from it. The atmosphere is theatrical and interactive, with moments where kids are invited to respond or react. Daytime tours are family-friendly, while evenings host DarkLand, a separate adults-only storytelling experience focused on darker folklore.
