They have a love of things that go bump in the night - and it seems the public do too - as a Killarney man's ghost hunting video has gone viral.

PJ O'Sullivan from Púca Vogue Paranormal Ireland and his ghost busting team posted a video online around Christmas time, but it was only over the last two weeks that it went viral - clocking up 1.9 million views and over 2k likes on Facebook.

"We were naturally shocked ourselves at this," PJ, who is originally from Gneeveguilla but lives in St Mary's Terrace in town, told the Killarney Advertiser.

The video was taken in Redwood Castle in, Lorrha, Co Tipperary in October when the Irish paranormal investigator invited like-minded people to the location for Hallowe'en.

PJ, who has been a paranormal investigator for over 15 years, set up Púca Vogue Paranormal Ireland three years ago and works alongside his son Leo and his partner Eva Walsh.

In the clip, Eva and Liz Kelleher are in the background with singer/songwriter Rebecca McRedmond front and centre.

"On the night we had a total of 10 people in the castle for the lockdown investigation including our own Rory Murphy and Veronika Slomiany," he said.

"It was filmed on the ground floor inside the main entrance area. It was a Hallowe'en paranormal investigation where we had guests including Damien O'Rourke from Cuppa Tea TV.

"We were investigating the ground floor. It was filmed in total darkness and Rebecca had felt a touch as we started and shortly in this clip she felt another touch at her leg. Eva had also commented the room had now felt tense, so on review of the footage we can see what we believe is her dress floating outward, and on inspection both her ankles show her feet were on the ground; there was no drafts, and it tied in with the experience so we shared that clip."

He added that they share clips from investigations but let people decide for themselves what it is that they see.

"We share what we believe we capture and this is just a few minutes as a part of the whole night as we investigate the castle over all floors usually from around 9.30pm to 4am with breaks and we have up to five cameras recording in 50 minute segments continuously which we download after for review. But as you can imagine with full-time jobs and life it takes time to review all the footage so we mix what we do with pictures and sites of interest. We are non-profit on all events. We had done Leap Castle the previous night, this is claimed as Ireland's most haunted castle and again shared the experience, but this is the reel that just took off on Facebook which has us surprised, but we are all very proud of Púca Vogue Paranormal.

"This is not our first capture from this castle as we have previously shared on their social media, we experienced more on the night which we will share at future dates."

Construction has started on a covered bus stop on Mission Road, following years of campaigning by Cllr Marie Moloney.

“After a number of years of my campaigning and a number of my motions, work has finally started on a covered bus stop on Mission Road,” said Moloney.
Planning permission for the project was approved earlier this year and will provide shelter for passengers using the FlightLink Dublin Airport Coach service.
Moloney had raised concerns on several occasions about the lack of shelter, highlighting the discomfort caused by waiting in bad weather.
Killarney Municipal District Council is carrying out the civil works, including building the bus stop base and installing power supply funding from the NTA National Transport.

Kerry ladies on cusp of another league final

Published

on

The Kerry ladies can book their place in the 2025 NFL Division 1 final by beating Meath at home in Austin Stack Park today (Saturday). The game throws in at 2pm.

Mark Bourke’s team are currently second in Division 1, three points (one win) behind leaders Armagh and three ahead of the Royals with two rounds of fixtures remaining.

Victory in Tralee would guarantee their qualification for the league decider, setting up a rematch of the 2024 league final against Armagh. The Orchard County prevailed that day in Croke Park, although the Kingdom were able to exact revenge later in the summer when they won the All-Ireland semi-final tie between the sides before also going on to win the final.

A draw against Meath would also more than likely be enough for Kerry considering their vastly superior points difference (+25 versus +3). Defeat would send it to the final day on March 29 with Kerry at home to Dublin and Meath away to Armagh.

There was good news for Kerry corner back Eilís Lynch this week as the Castleisland Desmonds player was named on the AIB Ladies Gaelic Football Club Championship Team of the Year. Desmonds won last season’s County and Munster Championships.

Meanwhile, Brian Looney and Micheál Burns of Dr Crokes were named on the AIB GAA Club Championship Team of the Year, with Burns also being shortlisted for Club Footballer of the Year alongside Con O’Callaghan (Cuala) and Ruairí Canavan (Errigal Ciaran). O’Callaghan was selected as the winner at a ceremony in Dublin last night.
