- Long ago a ghost was seen at Sgioból Cross in Farrenbrien. This ghost was very dangerous. Some times he was seen in the form of a bull and it is said that he hunted and killed many people. Other times he was seen in the form of a dog and many other animals.It is said that a man killed himself at the top of that road and it was after that the ghost was seen. People say that lights were also seen there. This ghost was only seen there for about two years ad no one saw him after that.But long before that funerals of ghosts were supposed to be seen along that road in the middle of the night.
