Cooley Wells

March 20th, 2009

Cooley Wells is an ancient set of holy wells that are located seven miles north west of Portaferry in Northern Ireland. Visitors to the site have reported paranormal experiences, including the sound of voices, and the sight of apparitions of people walking throughout the site. A medium was able to contact the spirit of a fisherman named Paul who worked there in 1874. Paul told her that he knew he died, but did not want to leave the place because it is so peaceful. Visitors continue to report paranormal experiences at one of the most beautiful places on earth.
