by Hans Holzer ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 17, 1967
The Irish sod's shakin'/The natives are quakin'/The ghosts are awakin'.... Sure and it's Himself, Hans Holzer, spirited spirit appraiser come to the auld country because ""You don't have to be Irish to like Irish ghosts."" He has his psychic friend, that quite a Dame Sybil Leek in tow, and she tunes in while he takes notes. Some of the livelier specters they run across include ex-members of the IRA (their spirit never dies), Mary Masters, a seven year old child who just happens to inhabit Dame Sybil's hotel room, ""The Ghost of the Olympia Theatre"" (Ireland's answer to the Phantom of the Opera?) and the mysterious ""Ghost of Renvyle"" who just might (could it be?) have been known in more solid form as William Butler Yeats. When not in direct contact Mr. Holzer and companion manage to find a lot of reasonably substantial rumor and it all adds up to pleasant reading for the psy-kickster.
