- Once there was a house in Ballycallan which was haunted by a ghost. This house belonged to a rich man and he put another man into this house. He was sitting on a chair by the fire and he had his bed beside him. After a while he went to bed and when he got into bed he saw the ghost sitting on the chair. The man was afraid but he kept his senses and he was very glad when the rich man came and opened the door in the morning. This man never slept in this house any more or went into it.
