Tales Old and New from Haunted Ireland

Irish ghosts and spirits

Irish ghosts are not confined to old tales of spooks and spirits in days of old, or to black, cold Hallowe'en nights. They are kept very busy, haunting modern as well as ancient ground. Spirits frequent castles and the usual haunted houses, while that scariest of Ireland's spooks, the banshee still pursues noble Irish families, through countryside and city streets.

The ghost of Helena Blunden is said to walk in the former linen mill where she once worked, the haunting cry of her last moments echoing off its walls. Ghost stories range from the supernatural to modern superstition. They are no longer the preserve of the past, or a superstitious culture. Ask the designer who late at night listened to quick, light footsteps on the stairs. Modern technology has been brought in to prove the existence of another of Ireland's restless spirits. The long-dead mill worker is, it seems, still around to be captured on web cam. Watch out for her, the most recent of many centuries of Irish ghosts.
