He has worked behind the scenes on shows such as Wild ‘N on Tour (2016), Ghost Asylum (2016), Exorcism Live (2015), and others. Mike has appeared in front of the camera with the Tennessee Wraith Chasers on Haunted Live (2018) and Haunted Towns (2017-2019). Mike has traveled the globe touring with his band, HIP KITTY, and is a tremendous supporter of our military, with 4 world tours entertaining our troops. In 2012 he spent Christmas and New Year touring Afghanistan with Armed Forces Entertainment.
As a Wraith Chaser, Mike brings his production expertise to the team, lending aid in the quest to uncover the unknown bumps in the night. Mike is a family man, animal lover, and follower of Christ, along with his fellow Wraith brothers. His charm and witty personality make him the most likely jokester of the team. But don’t let his wit fool you; Mike couldn’t be more serious about his investigation into the afterlife.
While in his grandfather’s barn, he saw a “shadow person,” a shadow-like humanoid figure also known in some cultures as “wraiths” that are usually seen in peripheral vision. Since then, Chris has devoted his life to investigating the paranormal. He later won a spot on Ghost Hunters Academy to train under Steve Gonsalves and Dave Tango of “Ghost Hunters.” It was after this show that Chris formed the Tennessee Wraith Chasers.
Chris then took part in the show Paranormal Challenge with two other members of TWC, in which they won their challenge. A production company then noticed them. Their first episode of Ghost Asylum premiered in 2014. Since then Chris has appeared on Haunted Towns and several other TV series.

Tips for Tour Guide, Coach Driver and hotel staff.
Whether you came in the day before, or just made your touch down into Dublin, the morning is yours to refresh and explore Dublin. Our hotel, the Dublin Citi Hotel is in the heart of the hustle and bustle of this grand city, The Dame & Temple Bar Districts, where you will be surrounded by the best shopping, food and SPIRITS! (Yes, this hotel is haunted!)
Morning: Free Time in Dublin
Begin your day wandering Dublin’s cobbled streets—feel free to explore its charming cafés, historic pubs, or the River Liffey’s quiet banks. Keep an eye out… for in Dublin, the past is never too far behind.
Afternoon: Kickoff & Hellfire
At 2 PM, we gather in the hotel lobby for a warm welcome and orientation. This is your chance to meet your fellow adventurers, get tips for a smooth journey, and learn how we’ll balance fun with safety. Then, we set out for our first taste of Ireland’s haunted history: the infamous Hellfire Club, perched atop Montpelier Hill.
Built in the 18th century as a hunting lodge for wealthy elites, the Hellfire Club quickly gained a fearsome reputation. Whispers tell of occult rituals, dark pacts, and a mysterious figure with cloven hooves who once appeared by candlelight. The roofless ruin still bears an eerie energy—locals say birds won’t fly overhead, and many visitors feel an unseen presence nearby.
As we walk among the wind-swept stones and peer into the shadows, remember: this is just the beginning of our journey into Ireland’s most bone-chilling and beautiful corners.

This morning begins with more time to soak in Dublin’s vibrant rhythm. From Georgian doors to cozy bookstores and corner cafés where poets once sipped inspiration, the city invites you to wander with curiosity. Feel the ancient heartbeat beneath the cobblestones—after all, this land never forgets its stories. But don’t stray too far! A day of legendary flavor and noble phantoms awaits.
Late Morning: Guinness Storehouse Tour & Tasting
We reconvene at the hotel by late morning to head over to one of Ireland’s most iconic landmarks—the Guinness Storehouse. Here, you’ll journey through seven fascinating floors that reveal the story behind the “black stuff.” Learn about its founder, Arthur Guinness, and the alchemy of brewing that made this stout a global symbol. The experience culminates at the rooftop Gravity Bar, where you’ll raise your pint above panoramic views of Dublin. Cheers to new beginnings and ghostly adventures ahead!
Afternoon: Malahide Castle & Gardens
Next, we journey north to the elegant Malahide Castle, a 12th-century stronghold that has housed the Talbot family for over 800 years—and perhaps still does… even in death. Tales tell of the ghost of Puck, a court jester who fell in love and met a tragic fate. His spirit is said to linger in the tower. Other sightings include a lady in white and a knight pacing the Great Hall. As we explore the majestic rooms and wander the serene gardens, keep your senses tuned—spirits are said to stir when curious souls are near.
Evening: Journey to Longford
As twilight falls, we make our way westward to the Longford Arms Hotel, where we’ll rest and prepare for the ancient mysteries that lie ahead tomorrow.

Today, we step into the soul of Ireland—where kings were crowned, druids whispered to the skies, and the veils between worlds shimmer still. County Meath, known as the “Royal County,” cradles some of Ireland’s oldest sacred sites. As we journey through rolling green hills and windswept ridges, prepare to connect with ancient energies and the enduring presence of those who walked this land long before us.
Morning: Hill of Tara
Our first stop is the legendary Hill of Tara, once the seat of Ireland’s High Kings. From its heights, the view stretches across a quarter of the island—a vantage point for power, prophecy, and ritual. Here lies the Lia Fáil, the Stone of Destiny, which was said to roar when touched by the rightful king. Beneath your feet are whispers of druids, faerie mounds, and an energy that many still feel vibrating in the earth.
Legends speak of underground realms ruled by the Tuatha Dé Danann—gods turned fae—who now guard these grounds. Some say the mists at Tara are not just weather, but the breath of the Otherworld…
Afternoon: Loughcrew Cairns
Next, we venture to the hauntingly beautiful Loughcrew Cairns, a passage tomb complex older than the pyramids. Nestled across the Slieve na Calliagh hills—“Mountain of the Hag”—this site is steeped in myth. According to legend, the great Cailleach (a powerful, ancient witch-goddess) leapt from peak to peak, dropping stones to form these tombs. She is said to sleep here still.
As we step inside the moss-covered cairns, sunlight may illuminate mysterious carvings—symbols of suns, stars, and possibly other worlds. Is this a calendar? A portal? The energy here is potent, quiet, and deeply stirring.
We return to Longford enriched, our spirits alight with wonder—and tomorrow, we go deeper still.

Today, we journey west into County Galway, where tradition and mysticism dance hand in hand. It’s a place where fairies still linger in the hedgerows, and the heartbeat of Ireland is best heard in the tap of a bodhrán drum and the sway of a fiddle tune. Expect a day filled with awe, spirit, and perhaps a little mischief.
Morning: Pat Noone’s Fairy Farm
We begin with a visit to the legendary Pat Noone’s Fairy Farm, a rare and sacred site where fairy forts, holy wells, and ancient energy converge. Pat, a wise and spirited guardian of this land, shares remarkable tales of the Good People—Ireland’s fairies—who dwell here unseen. With honesty and reverence, he’ll guide us through hidden paths and local lore that have been honored for generations. Many believe the farm is a living portal between our world and the Otherworld, a place where blessings (and warnings) still echo through the land.
Afternoon: Galway City & The Crane Bar
Next, we arrive in Galway City, a lively blend of medieval charm and artistic soul. At its heart lies The Crane Bar, Galway’s oldest continuously operating pub and home to Ireland’s longest-playing traditional music group—over 50 years strong. This pub isn’t just a venue; it’s a cultural treasure, echoing with the melodies of centuries past. Here, you’ll enjoy a traditional Irish pub experience like no other—and a surprise awaits that may stir both your spirit and your sense of wonder.
Evening: Free Time & Return to Oranmore Lodge
Enjoy the rest of the day exploring Galway’s vibrant streets at your own pace. We’ll return to the peaceful Oranmore Lodge tonight, the songs of Galway still lingering in our hearts.

Today, we cross into the rugged, mystical beauty of County Clare—a land sculpted by wind, sea, and time. Here, the natural and the supernatural hold hands, offering stunning views by day and ancient whispers by dusk. It’s a day of wide skies, sacred stones, and stories carved into the earth itself.
Morning: Cliffs of Moher
We begin with one of Ireland’s most iconic landscapes—the breathtaking Cliffs of Moher. Towering over 700 feet above the Atlantic, these cliffs stir the soul and stretch the imagination. Legends tell of witches leaping from their edges and warriors buried in caves below. Stand at the edge and listen: the crashing waves below have been known to carry voices not quite of this world. Take in the view, breathe in the salt air, and feel the power of nature and myth colliding in real time.
Afternoon: Poulnabrone Dolmen & Kilnalehin Priory
Next, we head into the Burren—a vast, otherworldly limestone landscape—and visit the ancient Poulnabrone Dolmen, a 5,000-year-old portal tomb that has guarded its secrets since the Neolithic age. It is believed to be a place of ritual passage, where the veil is thinnest. Some say the spirits of the buried still linger, watching those who tread respectfully among the stones.
From there, we continue to Kilnalehin Priory, a quiet, crumbling monastic ruin lost in time. Founded in the 7th century, it now sits cloaked in ivy and silence. Locals whisper of a robed figure who roams the grounds on moonless nights. We tread lightly—this is sacred land.
Evening: County Arms Hotel, Birr
Our day ends in the welcoming charm of County Arms Hotel in Birr, where comfort awaits and the echoes of the day still hum through our hearts.

After the magic and mystery of yesterday, today begins with a slower rhythm—giving you space to breathe in the beauty of Birr, a Georgian town filled with quiet elegance and stories waiting in the stone. But don’t be fooled by the peaceful morning... the night ahead will take us into the heart of Ireland’s darkest legends.
Morning: Free Time in Birr
Enjoy a leisurely morning exploring Birr’s historic charm. You may stroll past Birr Castle’s grand gates (home to one of the world’s oldest telescopes), browse antique shops, or sip coffee in a local café that might be older than your great-grandparents. The streets here feel like a time capsule—graceful and mysterious.
Afternoon into Evening: A Groundbreaking Paranormal Event
This afternoon, prepare for something extraordinary—an event never before offered to any tour group in Ireland. We won’t reveal too much just yet, but trust this: it will stir your curiosity, challenge your senses, and deepen your connection to the unseen. This exclusive experience is designed to blend ceremony, intuition, and a touch of otherworldly interaction.
Nightfall: Leap Castle Paranormal Investigation
As darkness descends, we make our way to the infamous Leap Castle—often called the most haunted castle in Ireland. Behind its stark stone walls lies a bloody past: a brutal fratricide in the chapel, known forever as the Bloody Chapel… secret oubliettes… shadow figures seen by countless visitors. And its most feared entity? The Elemental, a spirit said to bring with it the stench of decay and a cold dread that wraps around the spine.
Tonight, with expert guidance, we’ll explore these haunted halls ourselves. Bring your courage—and your curiosity. Some doors, once opened, echo long after you’ve passed through them.

Today we blend tradition, taste, and terror. From sipping the spirit of Ireland to stepping into a castle where the air itself hums with otherworldly energy, this day is designed to delight and disturb in equal measure. County Offaly, with its pastoral beauty and haunted grandeur, is our stage—where laughter by day gives way to whispers in the dark.
Morning: Kilbeggan Distillery Tour
We begin with a visit to the historic Kilbeggan Distillery, the oldest licensed distillery in Ireland. Established in 1757, this riverside treasure still crafts whiskey using age-old techniques and wooden machinery you won’t find anywhere else. Feel the warmth of malted barley in the air as guides share stories of generations who worked the stills—and the occasional ghost said to linger in the old stone walls. A tasting completes our tour, raising a toast to the richness of Irish heritage.
Afternoon: Free Time in Tullamore
Afterward, we head to Tullamore, a town with charm and spirit in equal measure. You’ll have time to stroll through its inviting streets, explore local shops, and enjoy a hearty Irish lunch. Don’t forget to pop into a pub or two—many locals are storytellers at heart, and some may even share tales of haunted happenings right there in town.
Evening: Charleville Castle Investigation
As night falls, we cross into the shadows of Charleville Castle, a Gothic masterpiece with a troubled soul. Built in the 18th century, its pointed towers and creaking corridors have hosted séances, secret societies, and now… us. The ghost of young Harriet, who tragically died on the staircase, is frequently seen. Others report disembodied voices, temperature drops, and heavy footsteps when no one else is near.
Tonight, we investigate its haunted heart. Cameras ready. Lights low. This is where legend meets experience—and you’re part of the story now.

Today’s path takes us deep into County Cork, where high kings once ruled and echoes of centuries past still cling to castle corridors and candlelit halls. From sacred rock to fortified stronghold, this day bridges ancient reverence and supernatural intrigue—with a hearty Irish meal tucked in between.
Morning: Rock of Cashel
We begin at the iconic Rock of Cashel, once the seat of the Kings of Munster and one of Ireland’s most majestic archaeological wonders. Towering over the plains like a crown of stone, this site boasts medieval architecture, Celtic crosses, and a hauntingly beautiful round tower. According to legend, the rock itself was cast from the Devil’s Bit Mountain by Satan, enraged by Saint Patrick’s mission. Walk among its wind-blown ruins, and you’ll feel history whispering through every crevice.
Afternoon: Arrival at Blackwater Castle
Next, we arrive at the stunning Blackwater Castle, nestled in the ancient woodlands of Castletownroche. Dating back over 800 years—and built upon even older prehistoric and Viking settlements—this castle has layers of time woven into its stone. Once you check in and settle, take time to explore the grounds, from its medieval watchtowers to its fairy-swept trails. The energies here are rich, subtle, and very much alive.
Evening: Dinner at Rock Forest Bar & Paranormal Investigation
We’ll head to the nearby Rock Forest Bar, a cozy, traditional tavern beloved by locals. Over a warm meal and friendly cheer, we’ll raise a glass to good company and ghostly adventures.
Then we return to Blackwater Castle—but this time, with our investigator’s eye. Many guests have reported spectral footsteps, shadowy figures in the halls, and even whispered names. Tonight, we step into those mysteries ourselves.
Will you witness the echoes… or become part of them?

Today is a celebration of enchantment—of castles that breathe with memory, stones that grant legend-born gifts, and forests steeped in old-world magic. As our journey nears its end, we’ll walk paths once trodden by kings, druids, and perhaps more ethereal figures, before gathering for a farewell worthy of all we’ve uncovered together.
Morning: Exploration of Blackwater Castle
Our morning begins with time to explore the grounds of Blackwater Castle, a site that has stood watch over this land for centuries. With roots stretching back to ancient Gaelic chieftains and Norman settlers, the castle itself is layered with forgotten stories. Wander the forest trails where folklore tells of fairy crossings and sacred wells. Explore the watchtowers, the winding stone staircases, and perhaps the very halls where last night’s spirits stirred. Let your final morning here be one of discovery and connection—to history, the land, and the journey we’ve shared.
Afternoon: Blarney Castle & Mystical Grounds
Next, we head to the legendary Blarney Castle, home of the world-famous Blarney Stone—said to bestow the gift of eloquence upon all who kiss it. But beyond the stone and towering battlements lies a deeper magic. The surrounding Rock Close is a Druidic garden of wonders: Witch’s Stone, Wishing Steps, Druid’s Cave, and the Witch’s Kitchen, all nestled among ancient yews and silent waterfalls. Many believe this grove pulses with ley-line energy and elemental guardians—step gently, speak kindly, and you may feel their presence watching.
Evening: Celebration Dinner at Blackwater Castle
Tonight, we gather back at Blackwater Castle for our Celebration Dinner. This is a night to toast our shared adventures, laugh over the unforgettable moments, and honor the friendships formed on sacred stones and starlit nights. Let the spirits join in joy, not sorrow, as we close this chapter in true Irish style—heart full, pint raised, and stories still to tell.
