Folklore Project Help

    Hey, first of Mods, I hope this is allowed here.

    I am currently doing a PLC course and one of the Modules is Folklore. I have a 50% project.

    I am writing mine on Dublin's most know, or should I say, most famous ghosts.
    I will also be writing on how often the Devil shows up in stories connecting to certain places examples such as The Black Church, St Mary's on the North side of Dublin and the Hellfire club.

    I was wondering if they are any Dub's here in the forum that would not mind sharing a few stories with?

    If the mods allow, I can leave my email address if you do not want to share your experience here on the thread.

    This would be really appreciated on my part.

    Thanks

    Anyone, is there a Folklore section on Boards?

    Hey O/P

    I'm a Dub. I'm not 100% sure what kind of help you are looking for exactly. Is it personal stories or stuff that we grew up hearing?

    Hey its basically just stories you would have heard growing up.

    The schools collection from the 1930s would be a rich supply of folklore I would think -
