We had a great family day out here with our 2 boys aged 12 & 9. The tour guides were spooky & very eloquent - we all got a few frights along the way. Would love to go back for the adult night tour.

A hammer house of gothic ghost stories, great twists and turns. Really a theatrical performance in a fascinating decrepit grand old house. Loved it !

I just took my family (3 young boys) to the Halloween tour in Loftus Hall which was exceptional. Creative, detailed, considered, educational and spooky as hell. My kids were suitably afraid but the biggest screams came from my husband. Fantastic!
