Rahona Lodge, Carrigaholt

Rahona Lodge in Carrigaholt, County Clare, is home to a rather unusual ghost known affectionately as 'Lucky'. This spirit was described by former owner Charlotte Kean as 'lucky' because it seemed to be able to spend as much time as it liked at her family's summer home. The haunting reportedly took place around 1917, and it's interesting to note that the ghost didn't seem to be a malevolent presence. In fact, it was considered so benign that it was almost as if Lucky had been given permission to linger at Rahona Lodge.

Old Courthouse, Lifford

The Old Courthouse in Lifford stands as a testament to the town's rich history, but it's also home to a rather unsettling presence. Adam Grierson's spirit is said to roam these hallowed halls, a victim of a botched murder trial that left many questions unanswered. In the 1860s, Francis Bradley was put on trial not once, not twice, but three times for Grierson's murder, with each jury failing to reach a verdict. During the third trial, a priest attempted to summon Grierson's ghost, and the atmosphere outside grew ominous - the sky darkened, and horses whinnied in distress. The judge intervened, and order was restored, but the jury still couldn't agree on a verdict.

Gillhall, Dromore

Gillhall, a grand estate in County Down, is said to be haunted by the ghost of Lord Tyrone. In 1693, shortly after his death, Lord Tyrone's spirit visited Lady Beresford, making several eerie predictions that would come true. But it was what happened next that left a lasting impression - he touched her wrist, withering it instantly. Lady Beresford wore a black cloth over the wound for the rest of her days, a haunting reminder of the encounter. This chilling event has become a famous part of Irish folklore, drawing in those with a taste for the paranormal.

Corkagh Estate, Dublin

Corkagh Park, once the grounds of Corkagh House, is said to be haunted by a mysterious presence that was first noticed during the Easter Rising of 1916. On Easter Monday of that year, the family and staff at Corkagh House were startled by the sound of a band playing and marching feet heading towards the house. They were naturally anxious, expecting an attack, but the sounds suddenly stopped and nothing could be seen. It was as if the music and marching had been a phantom procession, a fleeting glimpse of something that wasnt quite there.

Unidentified bridge in Blackrock suburb, Cork

In the quiet suburb of Blackrock, Cork, a mysterious and unsettling apparition has been reported.

The apparition was fleeting, vanishing suddenly and leaving the girl shaken.

Unknown house near St Stephen's Green, Dublin

The entity was also known to manifest visually to at least one witness, a young boy who described Corney as a naked old man. The locals became quite familiar with Corney's antics, which made it extremely difficult for the homeowners to sell the property.
