  2. A Local Story

    It is said that a ghost is seen in Kilruane Churchyard every night. Kilruane Churchyard was own by the Catholics at first but then the Protestants took it from them.
    One night as a man was walking through the cemetery, something pulled his cap off. No one knows who did it but it is said that it is a ghost that did it. It remains a mystery yet.
