  1. The Ghost of Ballygorman

    Share Share Post
    One night a man was coming back at Ballygorman bridge which is a village in the Parish of Aughagower. He met a man with a white jersey. The man thought that he was one of the neighbours because someone of the neighbours used to wear a white jersey. The man began talking to the white little man and the white man disappeared.
