Having chatted with Emma in a previous episode, we decided to take her up on her invitation to the Rectory, and we thought we'd bring you along.
PODCAST HERE
Built in 1775 as a Church of Ireland rectory, Sharon Rectory was the site of a gruesome double murder in 1797 when the United Irishmen ruthlessly murdered the Rev William Hamilton and his wife Sara Waller on the eve of the 1798 Rebellion. The ancient mansion is said to be haunted by lost souls and an evil spirit that gives the house a demonic presence. Sharon Rectory fell into disrepair following years of disuse but was bought by Vincent and Lisa Tully in the 1990s. The couple renovated the dilapidated property and moved in with their two daughters.
Thank you to Lisa, Emma and Victoria for their hospitality.
