Catherine Gogerty @catherinegogerty.bsky.social · 19hDay 5 Rhossili rectory, this lonely rectory on the cliffs over Rhossili bay has plenty of ghosts, but by far the most terrifying is a black figure said to drag itself out of the sea and into the house where there is a blast of cold wind and a voice says "why don't you turn round and look at me" 180

Catherine Gogerty @catherinegogerty.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Day 3 Cooneen ghost house, this remote cottage in county Fermanagh was the scene of a poltergeist haunting in the early 1900s. The family experienced banging, footsteps and items flying around. A man waiting outside saw three silhouette figures coming from the house. 1185
Catherine Gogerty @catherinegogerty.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Day 2 The return of Elizabeth Dacre, a story from Uncanny by @dannyrobins.bsky.social Grant tells of his experience of seeing the lady that had previously lived in his house sat outside a church staring ahead and gently rocking back and forth at night in the rain, although she had been dead a year. 061
Catherine Gogerty @catherinegogerty.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Day 1 Lyke Wake Dirge is an ancient dirge originating from the north of England. Up until the 1600s a woman would sing the song over the corpse as it lay at the wake, the words are as harsh and unforgiving as the Yorkshire moors themselves, with little comfort or hope for redemption. 0101

Catherine Gogerty @catherinegogerty.bsky.social · 24/09/2026The 'Devil's Coach-horse' beetle, in Ireland this beetle was a symbol of corruption. It was thought to have the power to kill on sight, and eat sinners. When the beetle raised its tail, it was thought to be casting a curse. I've got some of these living in my house at the moment #FolkloreThursday 1439
