So far this year we’ve had reports of ghosts in Kerry, Kilkenny and who can forget the ghostly nun who posed for a picture in Galway? Now there’s a ghost in Limerick and his name is Daniel. No, seriously.

The Limerick Leader reports that a team of paranormal investigators spent the night in Limerick’s Milk Market last week, following continuous reports of strange things happening and CCTV footage which clearly shows unidentified objects randomly floating around the 200 year old market place. Spooky.

Four investigators with the group Ghost Hunt Ireland are currently in the process of examining the footage of their night spent in the market to see if they can find anything else, or catch a few more glimpses of Daniel on camera.

Since the story was originally published in the Limerick Leader the paper has said that many local people have come forward and talked about their own supernatural experiences in the market.

“We’ve had people in talking about their experiences who didn’t want to talk about this before. Our security guards, who open up at 4.30am, have also reported things that they can’t explain. It’s all very baffling,” said David O’Brien, the manager of the Milk Market.

Breda Duggan, who is the founder of Ghost Hunt Ireland, has said that the team recorded numerous “spikes” on the screens of their equipment when they started calling out and asking any spirits present to answer questions.

When the team finally tried to get some sleep in the Milk Market, they were awoken by loud activity on their equipment.

“With a history of over 200 years, something has to be there,” Ms Duggan said.

The strange presence is being referred to by locals as ‘Daniel the Ghost’ and Ghost Hunt Ireland plan to return to Limerick in the coming weeks to examine the Milk Market again.

What do you think? Cast your eyes on the above picture from the Limerick Leader and have a look. Is it paranormal activity or a random burst of light?
