We are kicking off Season 3 of Shut the Front Door with Aidan Quigley, the owner of Ireland's most haunted house, Loftus Hall. Aidan and his brother Shane purchased Loftus Hall back in 2011 in a derelict state, and have since brought it back to life. The property is FASCINATING, with 22 bedrooms, 63 acres of land and its own private beach.
Situated on the picturesque Hook peninsula in Co Wexford, this Georgian mansion is steeped in history and folklore. Over the years, locals have said the property is haunted by the devil and the ghost of a young woman.... so what better time to release this recording than on Hallowe'en itself. We have spoken to many guests on our podcast about their homes, but this is a conversation like no other...

What a fabulous looking home, with a very interesting history. Love how this video presented that to us in such an informative and educational way. No sensationalism. I take my hat off to the Quigleys for taking such an interest in its restoration and history. I wish the current owners, and any future ones every success. I hope to visit some day.

Kept an eye out for it but sweet jesus it wasnt hard to miss. God help that poor wee kid and his or her mum. Ireland can be magical but can have its dark sides like everywhere. Would not sleep in this place if i was paid to though and would doubt if id ever go inside. Be great if ya loved the paranormal stuff. Someone thats into that could renovate it and have night stays for people lookin to be scared shitless lol im sure they'd make a fortune

This house is so beautiful it's grand so much history trapped in one space. I would love to visit one day. The owner has done a fantastic job with Loftus Hall.

@joemcconnell2674 3 года назад

My mate visited here during the tour's. These stories of people witnessing paranormal activity. My mate told me most of the Time it's in people's heads. Mind playing tricks. When he was there he didn't notice any paranormal activity what's so ever. He did say he heard a few floor board's creaking. But then that's normal in old houses.

My mother lived in Loftus Hall as a young teenager with the nuns just before she herself became a nun. It's a shame she's passed away and I can't ask her all the questions I now have about this place. I hope to be able to visit inside some day and see the amazing staircase that she must have surely polished. We did visit from outside the gate back in October. Even that was amazing it is in such an isolated place. It was quite an emotional visit with my brother and husband to think that's where our mother spent some of her time. Is it true that the staircase is one of three that exist one being in the Titanic one in the Vatican and one in Loftus ? This is what I've been told.

@katekinder Год назад

Maybe that is why the place is cursed.. maybe something happened with the wood

@nuthinmuffins5073 2 года назад

I’m a descendant of Adam Loftus, in addition to having a tremendous love for history and fascination with all things paranormal, so this was a real treat. I’m glad it’s being looked after so the history is preserved and folks can visit it. It’s definitely on my list of places to go to once I get a chance to travel to the area.

@benlonergan8842 2 года назад

@@girlscoutpie8061 It's mad that they're doing it! It used to be a tourist destination that was very popular so that lore of the paranormal won't go away so I don't know if they're going to embrace it and sell it as a haunted hotel or try just turn it into a legitimate hotel. Either way it's a stupid idea they should of just keep it as is

My mums cousin lives in Carlow and knows Aiden, he believes he has sold it now and its going to be turned into a 5* hotel, will be interesting if it happens and he said Aiden is a great guy. Id love to meet him & chat about restoration and the intricacies of a home like that

@harolynallison6889 2 года назад

This place fascinates me and would like to visit the palace, the history is very interesting the grand staircase reminds me of the grand staircase on the titanic

@susancouderc359 Год назад

Thats because the staircase was made by the same people and is one of only there that exist. There is one staircase in the Vatican one at the bottom of the sea in the Titanic and one in Loftus Hall. My mother lived in Loftus with the nuns before she became one. 🙂

I was told the year was 1666 when that demon or devil stranger playing the cards went up through the ceiling not 1775?? Makes more sense if it was 1666 cause 666 in the year. Mark of the beast. But I’m just going by various versions I’ve heard too. What was the real one??

There's a lot of history, which the owner knows, but his delivery is stilted and piecemeal. Granted he's not a professional tour guide. However. If he water to obtain a grant to restore an architecturally significant structure, he needs to do better. I gave up after 12 minutes. Stand an deliver with a narrative, mister, or sod off.
