Belfast is the capital of Northern Ireland, and its site has been occupied since the Bronze Age. It's been a major port since the 19th century, and the Harland & Wolff shipyard built RMS Titanic here.

It's a city of much history, so it comes as no surprise that there are plenty of ghost stories linked with Belfast. Haunted prisons, railway stations, private homes, even roads - Belfast has the lot.

So let's explore some of these Belfast ghost stories - and a particularly weird experience at one of its Bronze Age sites - in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!
