- One night there was a woman dying in a house below Dromahaire. At two oclock a pitiful cry was heard outside. Some of the people who were staying in the house did not know what it was but the dying woman heard it too. She told them not to be alarmed that it was the Bean Shee. She came and cryed for three nights around the house and the third night the woman died. The brother of the woman who was dying went outside he saw the Bean Shee outside. She was a small little woman all dressed in red. The people say that there only certain families the Bean Shee follows.
