Commenting in advance of this year’s Spooky Tunnel experience, Cllr Jason Murphy, Mayor of Waterford City and County, said he is looking forward to its return.
"It is fast becoming a Halloween tradition to visit the tunnel with family and friends over the mid-term break. Undoubtedly it is a Halloween event which is unique to Waterford Greenway. It highlights how the Greenway has continued to evolve over the years and offer a visitor experience that sets it apart from other amenities."
The Spooky Tunnel experience is part of a wider series of haunted happenings across Waterford city and county this Halloween. From ghostly storytelling and pumpkin carving to scary movie screenings and haunted trails, there is something for everyone.
