Haunted Dublin

Dublin is the perfect haunted city. Its narrow cobbled streets conceal layers of interwoven history and folklore, left behind by generations of Viking, Norman and Irish inhabitants. Walking through the streets on a dark October evening, as Halloween or Samhain approaches and the moon slips behind some flimsy clouds the ''other world'' seems closer, more tangible. Haunted Dublin brings together the city''s most infamous hauntings with stories that have never before been seen in print, including some of the author''s own chilling experiences. Meet phantom dogs in Dublin''s suburbs, black cats and Satanists in the Dublin Mountains, and the headless ghost of Buck Jones, which haunts the streets around Croke Park. From the murderous black pig that tormented eighteenth-century city dwellers, to modern day poltergeists in Tallaght; from bodysnatching to banshees, Haunted Dublin will intrigue you... and scare the jesasus out of you.
