Celebrate the spirit of Celtic Ireland’s festival of Samhain, today’s Halloween, by exploring the eerie undercurrents in Irish culture that have influenced literature, folklore, landscape and music. From the shadowy pages of Dracula to the windswept mounds of Newgrange, consider how Ireland’s folklore tradition has inspired both terror and transcendence and how Irish music has shaped collective memory. Journey into the haunted heart of Éire to discover the ways in which the past links to the present through story, stone, and song.
Join our most popular Irish scholars for three intriguing talks on the following topics:
Bram Stoker’s Dracula: A Tale of Irish Rage & Revenge
Access Ireland’s National Folklore Collection: A Rich Source of Local Customs & Stories
History & Lore of Newgrange and the Céide Fields
Following lunch, tap your feet and sing along to a Story & Song presented by the Cook College Ramblers
We’ll make time during the program to share stories, express our gratitude and acknowledge the immeasurable contribution Hank has made to Irish Heritage at Brookdale.
