It is the year 1690. Illness, fear and misfortune plague the sleepy port of Proctor’s Folly, Rhode Island. 

With the townsfolk believing sorcery to be the cause, a ‘witch’ has been tried and condemned to die. Join the accused on the eve of their execution as they are made to visit those most affected by their alleged crimes. Has the town been overtaken by hysteria, or is devilry truly at work? And will the truth emerge before the executioner passes judgement?

Ready to be spooked? Come along to our Torchlight Tours on Friday 23rd October & Saturday 24th October at Ulster American Folk Park, Omagh. Tickets on-sale now!

Important Ticket Information 

Choose from our two ticket types when booking your Torchlight Tour. Please note that all Torchlight Tours are delivered the same way so it's equally spooky no matter what tour you choose.  Our Standard ticket is for all ages, but we know some people prefer an adults-only experience so the Adults Only (16+) ticket provides this option. 

If anyone in your party is under 16 years old, choose the Standard ticket type. 

If everyone in your party is 16 and older and you prefer an adults-only experience, choose our Adults Only (16+) ticket

But no matter which tour type or time you choose, your Torchlight Tour experience will be the same. 

What to know

Everything you need to know about Torchlight Tours at the Ulster American Folk Park, Omagh

While there are two ticket types to choose from, both experiences are the same with no changes in the delivery of the tour - so it's equally spooky if you're at the standard tour or the 16+ tour!

Due to the route of the tour and nature of some of the exhibits, we unfortunately cannot permit any prams or buggies on the tours. Any prams or buggies should be left in the Visitor Centre before the tour departs.

Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult at all times (this includes those who are booked on the 16+ tour). Staff reserve the right to refuse entry to anyone at any time, without refund, if they feel that anyone under the age of 18 is not accompanied by an adult. It is therefore recommended that your groups identification is brought as part of your check-in process upon arrival.

Please note that the experience will contain loud sound effects and flashing lights, so may be unsuitable for those with specific accessibility requirements.

This is an outdoor event, so please wear suitable clothing and footwear.
