Bayview House

Some people might know Bayview House - it's the B&B on the corner near the Eye Cinema and Huntsman that was the subject of a supposed haunting a few years back. I've passed this place hundreds of times and not once have I seen a "Vacancy" sign, it always reads "No Vacancies". Is it still operating as a B&B?

Maybe they don't have a 'vacancy' sign.

Surely they could just cover up the "No" then?

I think this is the house he's talking about - https://maps.google.ie/maps?hl=en&ll=53.281176,-9.03235&spn=0.007159,0.013797&hnear=Ireland&t=h&z=16&layer=c&cbll=53.282029,-9.033796&panoid=7jdukDyh-sapMX0w6vS2sw&cbp=12,301.07,,0,-1.4

It's been apparently haunted for years, I remeber stories of lots of strange things happening when the place was being renovated.

I lived beside it for the last 2 years and never a saw a soul anywhere near it in that whole time. Gave me the creeps!

It has been closed as a B&B for years and afaik has some burst pipe water damage inside from a couple of winters ago.

Ghost taking a pee, so.

factual lies

A good friend of mine owns it, bought it many years ago. Business was good for a while but competition between themselves and the huntsman was too much so they ended the business a few years back. They leave the sign up as some people still enter asking for a room for the night even though they stopped trading. Most of these people would have been former guests who just arrive unannouced.

On the ghost stories, People used to say they would see a flickering light travel down the stairs and into the sitting room and then go back upstairs again before fading through the wall. Unfortunately this has never been the case.

Know people who got a priest last year to get rid of poltergiest activity in a house in town, sane people who arent religious or prone to having an active imagination, spooky stuff! Must be lsd or something in the water

Are you talking about Bayview House now?

GalwayGaillimh

nope another house in town

Bayview house of today is a totally different building. They knocked the old building and rebuilt on the exact same site.

(I'm aware that ghosts are more attached to a piece of land than an actual building and are therefore still residing in the new builiding, if in fact ghosts in general actually exist).

ghost only exist in North America, same as UFOs
