An immersive exhibition on serial killers is coming to Dublin at the end of November.

Inescapable Darkness: A Serial Killer Exhibition is an immersive exhibition exploring the chilling truths behind 20 of the world’s most infamous serial killers and the investigations that brought them to justice.

The exhibition at Artane Place in Dublin takes a look at the psychology, motives, and twisted logic behind killers including Bundy, Dahmer, Ed Gein, Fred and Rose West and Chikatilo.

The exhibition features recreated crime scenes, such as Bundy’s Beetle and Dahmer’s kitchen, plus a VR investigation that allows visitors to step into the shoes of a detective.

John Zaller, Creative Director at Exhibition Hub said: “We’ve seen immersive experiences reshape how audiences connect with history, science, art, and pop culture.

"We’re delving into one of today’s most popular phenomenons: true crime, which is a theme deeply rooted in human nature and storytelling throughout history."

Guests are brought behind the scenes of criminal profiling, the investigative processes, and the human element that is crucial in solving complex serial killer cases.

The exhibition aims to delve into the unsettling link between reality and fiction, showing how real-life horrors have inspired some of Hollywood’s most haunting characters.

Tickets have gone live on Thursday morning with prices starting from €14.90.

Dublin is the first stop before the exhibition makes its way to the rest of the world.

Tickets are available via Fever’s app and website.
