- The belief that ghosts frequent graveyards makes people afraid to pass them at night. Jokes have often been played on those who are very nervous.
After the death of a man in Quin a neighbour dressed himself in the clothes of the dead man. He walked from the Abbey towards the road at a time when a certain man was due to leave the village.
On seeing the "ghost" the man returned to the house he had left and told his story. The same thing happened for a week but some men found out who the man was.- Collector
