Ireland is talking about paranormal

LeinsterParanormal
"It's Common Sense, not Science" is LeinsterParanormal's general outlook when it comes to Paranormal Research. Yes we believe Science holds many of the answers but we have yet to find the proper scientific method for paranormal research. In general, common sense is probably one of the easiest ways to navigate ones way through paranormal research. LeinsterParanormal are generally a pretty sceptical bunch of people. Sceptical, but not cynical.
