    Is there an appetite in Ireland for paranormal conventions? Theres one in the north next year - but besides being a place to sell books etc, ive never been able to figure out the point of them.

    I like them just to go along and to see what crazy out there things people believe work in their 'investigations', some of the talks can be interesting also.

    If its the one I think your on about then, I was in awe at how the speaker thought a clearly pixilated/edited photo would prove anything!

    I got sick of it costing me loads of money. Would probably go to one if someone else organised it but I think the whole "paranormal thing" has dried out. Far less people involved in it noawadays

    thats it - well http://www.allirelandparacon.com/ . Interesting the two teams that are organising it have completely different views on the subject.

    The "all Ireland paracon"? What is it with paranormal groups and geographical locations?

    i think you'll find its a regular thing in ireland regardless of what its for. 'All Ireland' is a regular term, used by many organisations for many events, more than likely used to ensure no-one feels left out.
