If the Walls could speak, what would they say? Embark on a journey along the Awakening the Walled City Trail, where rich folklore, history, and heritage come to life in a truly unique experience. As Samhain approaches, and the veil separating living and dead grows ever thinner, get ready for an otherworldly takeover of EPIC proportions… Brace yourself for three nights of enchantment, mischief and spine tingles as a multitude of immortal creatures invade our ancient walls, cobbled streets and darkened alleyways.

New for 2025, the Awakening the Walled City Trail expands beyond your wildest nightmares with five brand-new zones.. From the fire-lit terrors of the Red Zone to the disco-dancing dead in Purple, each themed area brings its own unique brand of Halloween magic to Derry's ancient streets. Whether you're seeking spine-tingling scares, mystical transformations, harvest traditions, or immersive theatrical horror, these exciting additions promise to elevate your Halloween experience to legendary proportions. Dare to explore them all – if you can handle what awaits in the shadows...
