Episode 155: The Haunted History of Kells Irish Pub
Most bars serve up delicious spirits. But the type of spirit this one has on the menu is of the ghastly kind. An unscrupulous undertaker. A dastardly doctor. And decades worth of restless souls. That presence you feel next to you at the bar may be from an overly friendly patron, or it could be someone chatting you up from the other side. This week's episode is the Haunted History of Kells Irish Pub.
Special thanks to Patrick and Olivia of Kells Irish for giving us a tour!
