This in-person event will encourage and support attendees in sharing their oral histories. The first part will be a panel discussion on ghost belief over the centuries led by experts from social history, psychology and gothic literature from Ulster University.  The second part of the evening will be an interactive discussion allowing the audience to share their oral histories and narratives of ghost stories from the local area. 

What’s it about?

Have you a ghost story or had a spooky encounter?  Join us for an evening of hair-raising tales of ghostly goings-on around Ulster.
