  1. A Black Dog

    Share Share Post
    One night when my brother Mick was coming home from Clonmore, he passed by a haunted house in Killinure. A big black dog with blazing eyes ran out in front of him.
    He was nearly dying on the road with fright. When he came home he looked very pale and fainted. He told the story about the dog and he also said he saw a light in the house. This light was seen up to five or six years ago. And it has never been seen since. Mick was about thirteen years of age then, he is nineteen years of age now.
    He told me this story often.
