    Long story short I want to spend the night there for the craic.
    I'm not convinced it's haunted but I am concerned about being brained by some junkie in the hills, anyone have any experiences with the place?

    Did a few investigations up there but it was far to cold and windy to really get a feel for the place. I don't know of anyone who really has experienced anything up there.

    Never got anything up their, it's just an isolated/cold building where imaginations take hold.

    Not much up there at all bar a lot of grafiti and rubbish!

    Kilakee house though seems to be more interesting, which is on the same road. Unfortunately its privately owned.

    The Black Cat of Kilakee and the house itself has plenty a spooky take to be told.

    The woods on the other side of the road to the hellfire club would be more of an interesting visit but be very careful and don't go alone, some of the rituals are dodge at best.

    Also I found a junkie in the Hellfire Club late at night during a storm. Needle sticking straight out of his arm as he lay there on the floor. I got out of there super quick.

    I love how American shows always have to subtitle Irish people speaking English. Its very good, very entertaining. Not at all realistic but I enjoyed it. The bald guy is a bit dramatic.

    A buddy of mine was in the Hellfire Club building with his wife. He was exploring in one part of it, while she went up some steps near the front. Something grabbed her leg. She thought it was her husband, but he was in another part of the building. She got out of there super quick and he left with her

    The hell fire club is completely exposed to the elements. Was it windy that day? When it's windy, it shoots straight in and up the staircases. If you were a little bit on edge, it could feel like somebody was grabbing or touching the back of your legs.

    Dig at Hellfire Club, Dublin Mts
    19 Oct 2016 09:09

    Archaeologists are excavating what is believed to be an ancient passage tomb to the rear of the ruins of the Hellfire Club in the Dublin Mountains.
    The project, which is running throughout October, has uncovered the remains of the stone cairn that once formed the main mound of the tomb.
    The team has also found a range of materials, including flint from people making stone tools over 5,000 years ago, along with charcoal and some tiny fragments of burnt bone.
    The Hellfire Club was built as a shooting lodge for politician William Conolly in 1725.
    To build the lodge, his workmen destroyed two large tombs and utilised their stone as building material.
    This act is said to have begun the area's association with the supernatural.

    Finally got up there today, don't drive and so it was a hassle. Had to get the 15B bus from South George's Street to Stocking Avenue, then walk up Kilakee/Old Military Road to Montpellier Hill and through the Collite forest. Was worth it though, luckily no weirdos despite the reputation and it being this time of year. A couple of words of advice bring a torch to navigate the pitch black staircase, mind the random concrete step and the half a foot drop into the back upstairs room. 😀
