>Any spoopy stories/urban legends from Ireland?
There are a shit-ton around there, man. Various counties have their own local tales of fairy encounters, not to mention the ghosts.

I'd suggest looking up some haunted areas nearby and maybe having a weekend of it.

I live near the Cooneen ghost house. 10 years ago you would often hear weird shit going on in the woods, people say it was satanists doing rituals.

Theres some stories of the virgin mary appearing to people at holy wells or statues and now some people flock to those places hoping to get a glimpse for themselves

the Dobharcu
a lake monster in a lake in Leitrim, supposedly killed a woman

Oldfag here. I've been ghost hunting, doing occulty shit, visiting pre-Christian sites, reading on folklore, history, etc etc, for years.

I'm tired now, but I'll check back in the thread in a bit with some stories. For now, what would people like to hear about most?

What about the island that appears off the coast of Ireland every so often?

>>19312352
Where exactly? Never heard of this

Hy-brazil

>>19312366
Hy-brazil is interesting. One day every 7 years? Assuming it's not all a tale, would that be exactly one day every 7, or is it more symbolic like 40 days and 40 nights means a long time? Island in the mist: we know from the Philadelphia experiment that time travel/em cloaking generates a mist too. So it could be done-up with em stuff. Neat.
