Apple of my Evil Eye

Irish Spirits

We hope you had a great spooky season! In a return to our usual haunted content, we decided to revisit the haunted castles of Ireland! In what was Haunted Castles P.2: Apple of my Evil Eye, we focused on everything from disruptive ghosts to enchanted orchards - the latter inspired our phantom bartender Alex to concoct an apple-heavy cocktail, you can catch the recipe on our Instagram @irishspiritspodcast
You can also catch us on Twitter: @irishspiritspod & reach out to us at: [e-mail]
Shout-out of course to our ads: F**k My Work Life Podcast & NeatCast & new addition: Scottish Murders... Check the guys out, they are awesome!
