XXJOB 30-10-2014: Karen Horgan with a red rose on at Ballyseede Castle Hotel, Tralee on Thursday re enacting the ghost of Hilda Blennerhassett, the last of the Ballyseede Blennerhassetts, who some believe can still be seen walking the corridors of the hotel carrying the symbolic rose. The red rose secured the lineage of the Blennerhassett's for almost 400 years until Hilda died in 1965. Miss Blennerhassett was awarded the Mons Star for nursing in the Great War and died in the 'Crosby room where the words 'RIP' are now engraved on the window sill.
