A Waterford museum — believed to be a hotspot for paranormal activity — has enlisted the help of ghost hunters following reports of eerie occurrences at the venue.

GhostÉire — an Irish-based paranormal team that claims to make contact with spirits through a mix of scientific and traditional methods — conducted a months-long investigation into the bizarre happenings which were reported at the Wake Museum on Cathedral Square.
