Halloween in Cavan, 1986

This video was posted in posted on EUscreen which provides standardised access to over 30,000 items of programme content and complementary contextual information through one freely accessible online portal.

Involving Cavan school children, this clip shows an interview by former television and radio presenter for Raidió Teilifís Éireann (RTÉ) Bibi Baskin and broadcast on Halloween night, 1986, and the children involved describing the pranks they will get up to and the games they will play at Halloween.

We put out the call to find out who the children were and so far, this is what we've learned.

Niall McHugo emailed us to to say:

"This took place in St Marys NS, Virginia.

Joan McBrearty, Bailieboro. (1st girl)

Vincent O Dowd, Billis

Linda Smith, BJD. (on 3/4 times)

Enda McBrearty, Bailieboro (twin of Joan)

Niall McHugo, Virginia

Aine Clarke, Killinkere

Kevin Brady, Lisgrey

"I don't recognise voices of anyone in masks. Blonde lad may be Ross Clowes or David Sherlock, both from Virginia."

Do you recognise anyone you know?
