Here's a virtual movie that takes artistic liberty with time " Wee Bridgit Mcginley" An Irish Ghost Story told by Percy French who for the purposes of this video is telling a story that would have taken place after he had actually died himself in 1920. I wanted to utilise this enjoyable little ghost story to show Percy French doing something he might have done when he gave his public performances singing songs,and reciting his poems and perhaps telling a ghost story.
I have no information about the authenticity of the story other than it is a sort of generic ghost story told in Ireland and throughout the British isles.
William Percy French (1 May 1854 – 24 January 1920) became known as one of Ireland's foremost songwriters and entertainers. Thanks to the late Oliver Nulty, French has become recognised for his watercolour paintings as well. William Percy French was a gifted polymath who had a number of artistic talents at his command. He could work very quickly, and his output is prodigious across many genres.
