Ok so the Bram Stoker Festival did not work out as I had expected this year, but thats just the way life works out sometimes. After dropping the car off at Red Cow, Park & Ride. I hopped the Luas into town and started off with a visit to Wolftone Square, which was the staging area for the Vamp Wire. Now this was no ordinary Zip Wire, aside from it being a free event, it gave the opportunity to make like a bat and experience what it would be like for a vampire to fly over the city. Pretty cool if you ask me? Even at this early hour of the day there were a number of people already dressed in their finest Gothic costume for the day. So after getting a few shots I was tempted to give it a go myself, but as always the case the clock was ticking and time was not on my side. I had to move on quickly to get to another event on the far side of the city.
For these and more of my images, why not visit my Website or join me on Facebook or Twitter.
I’d love to do that! But I bet it was a very looooooooong queue for a very short ride!

Hello Ed, I was out of town for Halloween weekend and just saw this post. I was looking forward to your Bram Stoker post. Was it cancelled?

No, it went ahead, I was only in Dublin for one day, but missed some of the events. There was not as much street events on this year which was a bit disapointing. But there will always be next year 🙂

Alrighty, I thought something happened that prevented you from attending. That zipline is pretty incredible! I suppose it is the next best thing to flying like witch or a bat! 😉
Did your kids have a good Halloween?
