Check out information on Christchurch Cathedral and St. Michan's Church in Dublin. They have the closest thing to catacombs. St. Mican's has a tour of their underground chambers where there have preserved mummified bodies.

If you want to see something creepy, watch people kiss the Blarney Stone.
(The Blarney Stone is a legendary block of limestone built into the battlements of Blarney Castle, near Cork, Ireland. According to legend, kissing the stone endows the kisser with the gift of gab (great eloquence). The stone was set into a tower of the castle in 1446. The Blarney Stone is supposed to be half of the original Stone of Scone.)
The locals pee on it at night - that's creepy.

I don't know if they are catacombs, but there are man-made caverns there that go back in history something like 10,000 years.

Yes. Check the websites for any major cities or castle areas for details. Most of those areas have them.

Yes, but they're called McCatacombs.
