St. James Cemetery - Monks Castle

Many years ago… I visited here with family.
I do not believe in ghosts/spirits. I was told what I saw couldn’t be real. I still believe that I saw ACTUAL men, that were monks with brown robes with hoods, and colored rope belts. They said nothing, but they are monks, so I thought nothing of it.
I was told that there are no monks with brown hooded robes. They looked like actual people. A couple of them out of six had brass round bulbs on a chain that they were slightly swinging. They went into a building. My father in law pointed out that although I saw lights inside, that the building had no electricity. Weird. They are convinced that I seen spirits. I still believe that I saw actual monks. But whatever. They seemed very peaceful. They were just doing their thing. I haven’t been back since. Maybe I will at some point.

I went there yesterday and during my walk, I felt very light headed which I don't normally feel. When I was reading other comments...I thought my feelings strange.

I visited this cemetery yesterday and as soon as I entered I developed a headache and nausea as well. So much so that I had to reaearch it later and sure enough found this recent post. Interesting…

Many years ago I went on a ghost hunting trip and St. James cemetery was one of the places we stopped. As soon as our bus pulled in to that place, I became so nauseous and my head was pounding. I was so sick to my stomach, I don’t remember much of what the tour guide said about the place. I needed to get out of there. The energy was so strong with negativity and I felt like I couldn’t breathe either. We no sooner left there, my headache stopped and I was no longer feeling sick to my stomach. It was an experience I’ll never forget!
