- There is a stile leading into a field belonging to Mr Kilroy behind the church yard in Killeagh which is supposed to be haunted. One night a man named Jack Mac Cormack was coming home from work. He had to count sheep in this field. As he came near the stile he was surrounded by big walls he tried every way to get out but failed. He had to stay there untill morning. When he went home he was unable to tell them what happened to him as he got such a terrible fright he never went that way again.
