ARE you brave enough to enter the Tower of Terror?
As Halloween approaches, the Tower Museum will see the awakening of some its most putrid and ghoulish residents who will roam freely around its exhibitions.
To those that dare enter, you can find them climbing the walls and hanging from the ceilings of the historic tower, causing terror to anyone who enters.
Sylvia Kavanagh, Museum and Visitor Services at Derry City and Strabane District Council said, ‘At this time of year we begin to notice strange happenings occur at the Museum. These creatures run amok throughout the museum causing mayhem and mischief at every turn.
‘As you walk through the darkness, guided by lamplight on the Ghost Tours, be prepared to be terrified by stories of ‘The Death Coach’, ‘The Gravestone’ and ‘The Devil’s Chair’.
“With admission to the tours you can also avail of the family fun activities in the Discovery Zone which will include mask making, treasure hunts, lantern making and lots of other fun activities.
‘There will be plenty of frights as you go along. This is not something for young children so we have a very strict policy that children should be eight years and above.
