Hauntings in Limerick..or even North Tipp

Mozzeltoff

I am not from Limerick myself but I am usually in the place every weekend or so.After reading the Hauntings in Cork thread I got intrigued by it and decided that I would like to do a little ghost hunting.Bear in mind I have been mad do this all along and I know two or three mates of mine that would definitely be up for it!!
So was just wondering if anybody had any ideas of places of interest around Limerick or North Tipp..

How about the Green Man up near Templetouhy, close to Templemore?!

Mozzeltoff

The Green man?never heard of it...what is it or what's supposed be up that way?
I live close enough to Templemore so we might just check this out!!

Hmmm, not quite sure the exact location. Its basically a straight road through the bog and theres a forest in the middle and apparently at the crossroads with the forest track you can see a green man. Story goes that some monk hung himself there back in the day and haunts the place.

I went up once and two of us saw nothing while the other two freaked out and told us to get the feck out of there! Quite odd!

Mozzeltoff

Sounds quite interesting!!I may take a visit to it some day during the week..I'll ask one or two people I know from that direction to head up with me..sounds creepy enough!

Ah sure come along anyway..knowing the lads that will be going with me they'll be a good enough sized group going!More than welcome to join!:)
Haven't seen paranormal activity but heard there was four different endings to it and I heard it was ****..however I should give it a watch regardless of what people think of it..

Actually if anyone from Tipp is reading this aswel..could anyone tell me where exactly the location of "The Haunted Gates" in Borrisoleigh are?Are they actually in the village or out in the surrounding areas?would like to take a trip up that way too..

Used to travel that road daily to work....never saw or felt a thing?

Would be interested in more info on this.

The story behind it seems pretty cool..I may give it a visit!Definitely checking out The Greenman though!Talking to some friends about it and they said they would be up for it anyway.May be waiting until the end of Feburary to do it though..

Ruth KPS

Just remember with Carrigogunnel...It's on top of a hill so climbing is a tad bit of a must lol

But we did have a fantastic night there!

Mozzeltoff

no bothers sure...I live in the hills anyway so well used to the walking:D
