Haunted Belfast Exploration Game and Tour

Uncover the dark legends and restless spirits hidden along Belfast's oldest streets.


This haunted Belfast tour blends outdoor exploration, puzzle-solving, and local legend into a single self-guided experience that leads you through the city's most atmospheric and historically charged locations. Your phone guides you from clue to clue, revealing a crafted narrative as you go. No guide is needed, and you set the pace entirely.

From the iron gates of Clifton Street Graveyard to the grand facades of the Merchant Hotel, each stop carries a story that the history books rarely mention. The route threads through lesser-visited corners of the city, including Crumlin Road Courthouse and the narrow laneway of Joy's Entry, where the past feels uncomfortably close.

The experience suits solo travellers, couples, and small groups equally well. Because all instructions and clues are delivered through your phone, you can pause, explore, and return to the game at your own convenience throughout the duration of the tour.

Highlights

Walk a curated route that connects ten historically significant and reputedly haunted locations across central Belfast.

Solve narrative-driven challenges at each stop that unlock the next chapter of the story and direct you onward.

Visit Crumlin Road Courthouse, Carnegie Oldpark, and Clifton House, landmarks rarely covered in standard city tours.

Learn the legend behind one of Belfast's largest and oldest graveyards, Clifton Street Graveyard, through an original narrative.

Receive all clues and directions on your phone after booking, making the tour fully independent and flexible to your schedule.

Combine elements of a guided tour, outdoor escape game, and treasure hunt into one cohesive urban adventure.

Rated easy in difficulty, the route is accessible for most fitness levels and requires no specialist equipment.

Itinerary

1
Carnegie Oldpark — Start Point

Your journey begins here with the first clue. Solve the opening challenge to unlock the initial chapter of the story and receive directions to the next location.

2
Crumlin Road Courthouse and Clifton Street Graveyard

Two of Belfast's most storied addresses sit close together on this stretch of the route. The courthouse and the graveyard each carry their own clue, and you may linger as long as you wish before moving on.

3
Clifton House and Exchange Street West

The Georgian elegance of Clifton House contrasts with the older lanes nearby. New challenges await at both stops, deepening the unfolding narrative as the city centre draws nearer.

4
Dunbar Street Parking and The Merchant Hotel

From a quiet car park to one of Belfast's most iconic Victorian hotel facades, this section bridges the industrial past with the commercial centre of the city.

5
Joy's Entry and Cornmarket

The narrow passageway of Joy's Entry leads into the bustle of Cornmarket. Clues here draw on the layered mercantile and political history of Belfast's oldest trading district.

6
Queen's Bridge — Finish Point

The story concludes at Queen's Bridge on the River Lagan. Both the narrative and the city exploration game end here, offering a fitting final view of the city.
