GhostWatch at Irelandseye.com

A young linen worker, named Helena Blunden, died after a tragic fall in a Belfast mill in 1912. There are many people who believe she still haunts the mill today. The printing company which is now based in the mill building alerted us to unusual, eerie encounters with a ghostly inhabitant.

Visitors to Irelandseye.com were invited on the GhostWatch to view a live broadcast by web camera from a windowsroom in the linen mill and to report if they witnessed unusual, strange events. The web camera has been running 24 hours a day, seven days a week and has attracted some two million visitors. We have published visitors' reports throughout the year and continued to research the history of the mill.

A remarkable and accidental discovery of a bundle in the linen mill has unearthed an 87-year old recording and Discoveryarchive newspaper reviews of Helena Blunden's singing talent. We invite you to listen to this recording of Helena Blunden singing Pie Jesu which was made on 24 January 1912, just three months before her tragic death.

We have updated the reported sightings from our online viewers. In addition to this we have some statistics on our reported sightings and non-sightings over the last year.

A layout map of the linen mill indicates the room where Helena once worked and where her footsteps have been heard along corridors and on stairs.
