Halloween Returns: Conway Mill and Blackstaff Mill
Join Shadow Hunters NI this Halloween for paranormal investigations at Conway & Blackstaff Mill. Real experiments. Real energy. Real experiences.
It’s finally that time of year again. The nights are longer, the air is colder, and we’re gearing up for our biggest Halloween run yet .
After two long years, we’re back at Conway Mill , and we honestly couldn’t be more excited to walk its corridors again.
If you’ve ever been to Conway before, you’ll know exactly what we mean when we say that the building has a presence . Even while setting up the experiments and doing some test runs the other night, you could feel it... that same heavy, watchful atmosphere that makes you stop halfway down a hallway and question if you’re really alone.
And this time, we’re not holding back.
Our Conway Mill event is a full four-hour investigation , packed with five completely different experiments spread across various areas of the building. Each one offers something unique, some quiet and focused, others that’ll test your nerves just a little more than you expect.
We’ve brought back an old favourite that hasn’t been seen at our events in quite some time, and we’ve reworked a few classics with fresh new twists. Every setup has been built from the ground up to make sure it fits the night perfectly. We’ve poured hours into preparation, making sure everything feels right and it’s going to be fantastic.
There’s teamwork. There’s trust. And yes, there’s a bit of isolation. You’ll be working together, watching, listening, and feeling. And in one particular area… let’s just say one brave volunteer might find themselves in a slightly different position from the rest of the group.
But that’s all we can say for now. You’ll find out soon enough.
Blackstaff Mill – Our Home Turns Haunted
Once Conway wraps up, we take a short break and then head home to our very own Blackstaff Mill for a run of two-hour Halloween investigations on October 30th and 31st .
These shorter events are fast-paced, intense, and packed into four different areas across the building, many of which we’ve never investigated publicly before.
We’ve chosen the kind of locations that make your torchlight feel just a little too weak. Places that are dark, enclosed, and buzzing with that perfect Halloween tension.
Every room has its own distinct energy and a completely different experiment. We’ve also got a few brand new things lined up, experiments we’ve never done before at any Shadow Hunters NI event. They’re subtle, clever, and combine two of our favourite methods in a way that’s… well, you’ll just have to see for yourself when you get there.
The Halloween Finale – Back to Conway Mill
We’ll be closing out the Halloween season by returning once more to Conway Mill on Saturday 1st November , rounding off four fantastic events across two incredible locations.
It’s going to be the perfect finale... a big night, a big investigation, and five areas filled with energy, curiosity, and atmosphere. We can’t wait to do what we do best: run a proper paranormal investigation with you , our amazing community.
