They're talking about my mom!
I was impressed and surprised to see the priest reject it out of hand and his explanation of the phenomenon was very reasonable. The boys looked like they'd dreamt the whole thing up between them for a bit of craic or to cover up for why they were late home. They'd probably no idea that it would go on to generate media interest so I suppose they had to go along with it and stick to their story. In for a penny, in for a pound. In any event their constant smirking and laughing did little to add credibility to their rather dubious tale. Religious themed hallucinations are of course a thing too but the chances of three separate boys each experiencing the same thing at once must surely be astronomical!
That's very possible. The description certainly matches with the statues of the Virgin Mary the boys would see in their church and that married to an overactive imagination may explain their story. An interesting time capsule of early 1970s Ireland and its beliefs nonetheless.
Thank you. Short and sweet it is.
So you get ghosts as cashback?
You can make quite a bit of money with an allegedly haunted place. Some pubs use their so called ghosts as marketing material.
That's true though I imagine it works the other way too - people too scared to stay at a property or purchase it due to its allegedly being haunted.
Maybe, although I have seen so many ghost tours advertised and a couple of pubs building their advertisement with their so called ghosts, I think a lot of people wished their business was haunted. I thought to write a short story about it, a shop owner trying to find a ghost to haunt the premises.
