    I recently came across this site and find it interesting although it really annoys me when there is no address for the houses, would anyone know where the haunted mansion in is? , The one in Dublin.

    Most come with no addresses as the people who let him take photos of their property most likely asked him not to display that addresses, to avoid scumbags using the places as drinking holes and wrecking the places.

    I've done a bit of research on the houses in this book/website, and for some of them, they are not even in the counties they are listed as being.

    There is nothing paranormal about any of the buildings on that website. If you are interested in old buildings you can take archaeology and history courses or join an urban exploration group.

    It's much more interesting and rewarding to study the genuine history of a building than go in ghost hunting with a no knowledge of the places at all.

    +1. The buildings are interesting for their architectural, historical and photographic value - you can check out comprehensive lists on archiseek.com or buildingsofireland.com.

    The houses that are reputed to be haunted are mostly inhabited.

    I know someone who's involved in this.

    They don't post addresses because often they're trespassing.

    I don't list location details on AbandonedIreland.com because experience has proven there are too many problems with trespassers; they get themselves into trouble and me into trouble.

    I am running a free exhibition as part of Dublin Culture Night 21st September 2012. Come along and say hello :)
