Book Launch and Talk - Loftus, The Hall of Dreams

Book Launch and Talk - Loftus, The Hall of Dreams In-Person

Signed and dedicated copies of Helena's book will be available for purchase on the night.

Join writer and historian Helena B. Scott in New Ross library to discover the untold story that lies beneath the surface of Ireland's most haunted house.

Allow the Hook Peninsula to share its wisdom, showcasing its dualistic nature, reflected in the Hermetic principle often associated with the Knights Templar.

Loftus Hall, in Co. Wexford’s Hook Peninsula is popularly known as Ireland’s most haunted house due to a centuries’ old tale involving the devil, a game of cards, and the young Lady Anne Tottenham who died of a broken heart. However, its real and untold story is much more sinister and haunting.

Like many historic haunted sites, the Hall has an ancient story to tell that began long before it was ever built, under the stars worshipped by Druids. Many of its secrets are actually hidden in plain sight, veiled by symbolism but can be easily read by those who were meant to decipher their cryptic language. The Hall’s story is also linked to the Knights Templar unjustly arrested at dawn on Friday the 13th, 1307 as well as Freemasonry and the Western Esoteric Tradition.

Signed and dedicated copies of Helena's book will be available for purchase on the night.
