County Westmeath doesn't tend to feature at the top of lists like this, and that suits it. The paranormal history here isn't built on grand reputation - it's buried in the details. In the dressing rooms beneath a former execution site in Mullingar. In the courtyard of a distillery that has been producing whiskey since 1757, where a robed figure still makes occasional appearances. In the upper hallways of a lakeside castle where guests have watched something take shape on the staircase.
The locations here range from the well-documented to the barely spoken about. Some have been investigated. Others have simply accumulated stories over generations, passed between people with no obvious reason to embellish them.
