  1. Story (23)
    There is a quarry about a half mile from my house. It is said that it was haunted by a Spirit who fought with a man who was coming from town, and the Spirit stuck the man with a knife. The man was never seen or heard of since. The quarry is called Coireál na Spride. The young people have forgotten about it and they are not afraid to pass the quarry.
