  2. The Leighlinbridge Ghost

    Share Share Post
    A woman named Mary Byrne was working in Leighlin Bridge. She was working in Vigor's House. One night she was reading in the kitchen. A small woman opened the door and asked her for the frying pan. About an hour later she saw the little woman again and she got back the frying pan. Then the fairy disappeared.
