Out of Belleek road about a mile from Ballyshannon there is an old castle. There is a tower at the gate and a long passage or avenue down to the castle. Every ngiht at twelve o’clock a coach, with horses without heads an a driver without a head, comes out through the gate and goes in the Beleek road and up the Main St. Anyone who sees it is supposed to die in a year’s time.
