St. John D. Seymour was born in Dublin, Ireland, in 1945. With a keen interest in Irish folklore and supernatural phenomena, he has dedicated much of his life to exploring and sharing Ireland's rich ghostly traditions. Seymour is recognized for his thorough research and passion for uncovering the stories that form part of Ireland's cultural heritage.
This is one of the classic works on the subject. Briskly written and full of detail, it also touches on the banshee, poltergeistery, etc. Highly recommended.
