The Miracle of 1985: Ireland's Moving Statues

from Wide Atlantic Weird · host Cian

Whether this was an example of mass hysteria or a manifestation of the country's discomfort with modernization, it's a story that straddles the worlds of the religious and the Fortean. Join Cian for a beer at the cabin in the woods as he dusts off a classic episode on this topic!
