The Rocking Chair/The Banshee
from Booze & Ghouls Hosted by H.A.T.S. Productiion
The Banshee: Ireland’s Harbinger of Death Pull up a stool, pour yourself something strong, and join Colleen for a deep dive into one of Ireland’s most chilling legends: the banshee. She’s not your average ghost — she’s a centuries-old omen of death, wailing her way through castles, riverbanks, and family histories. We’ll unravel her origins, explore real historical encounters, wander through haunted sites across Ireland, and sip some whiskey along the way. Equal parts eerie and irreverent, this episode will have you laughing one minute and side-eyeing the window the next. Sláinte! Resources ‘Banshee’ – Irish Folklore Commission Archives. Lady Fanshawe’s Memoirs (17th century encounter). Loftus Hall official history and folklore records. National Folklore Collection, University College Dublin. Regional folklore compilations: Clare, Kilkenny, Wexford oral histories. Travel blogs and paranormal tourism websites for modern references.
