SyFy's Ghost Hunters At Paddy Reilly's Stirs Up Our Poster Poltergeist Yet Again!

For those of you from another planet, SyFy's "Ghost Hunters" crew came to Paddy Reilly's just before St. Patrick's Day to investigate ghost sightings throughout the bar and building!


We could have told them something about it ourselves from our own two earlier incidents - the December 14th original poster visitation , and the January 4th second poster visitation.


Nonetheless, the results were broadcast on SyFy March 17, 2010 - and things haven't been the same since...


Here are the UTube links (part 1  and part 2) of SyFy Channels "Ghost Hunters" episode called "Shamrock Spirits".


Observant viewers will note, in part 1, that the Bluegrass & Beyond poster is visible, and clearly unaffected, at both 2:38 and 3:32 during the program.


Things stayed quiet for most of April, but on May 3rd, two new sightings were made on the official Bluegrass & Beyond poster.


Most of the jammers weren't scared, comforted by owner Steve's assurances on the program that, "If we did find any spirits at Paddy Reilly's, I can assure everybody that they're all very friendly spirits..."


I can't argue with you there Steve, it looks like a friendly ghost to me.


On the other hand, I have to disagree with Steve's comment that, "I don't know if it looks like Gene Hackman or not..."


Steve, it sure looks like Gene Hackman there, waving at us from above the dobro!


Oh well, you be the judges. Here's the evidence (fleeting as it is):

These U Tube links were taken off, but immediately replaced by someone else.

Just search U Tube for "Shamrock Spirits" (SyFy's "Ghost Hunters" series).

Paddy's is usually parts 1 + 2...
