  1. My grandmother was at a wake one night. Mr Mullally was dying. He lived in Thomastown parish of Golden Co. Tipperary. As they were all inside they heard a lot of people walking around the house. Before the man died the Banshee was crying at the window. They thought that there was a lot of people coming in but when the man died all the walking stopped.
