Killakee House

Ziycon

I was thinking of trying to get a few people to go up to Killakee house to have a look around with regard to the stories of the black cat supposedly sacreficed at the hellfire and also the two nuns that have been reportedly seen after some young film makers had a saonce their one nite when they where staying for fun! Trying to get contact details for the place at the moment.

Was up there at the weekand (am up that way alot). The place is closed and currently under going some work.

Unfortunately you cant get into the place as as of 1972 there have been no more happenings in the place itself following the last offically sanctioned exorcism in the diocese. The owners have had no problems and dont want to go dragging things up again.

There are so many stories about Killakee and the Hellfire club and tbh most of them are screwed up versions of stories from other sites.

Interesting area and some nice legends associated with the house & Hellfire Club etc. One of my favourite places to spend a night in a tent/under the stars.

unfortunately killakee is now a family home
as for paranormal actives there hasn't been any in years

O'Brien encountered many other, less exotic, ghostly phenomena at the house, many of them poltergeist-type in nature. She called in a Catholic priest to perform an exorcism, but to no avail. the hauntings continued. Finally, in 1970, a dwarfish skeleton was discovered under the kitchen floor, lending credence to the legend associated with the Hellfire Club. In the grave with the dwarf was a brass statuette of a demon. The priest was called a second time and the body properly buried. The manifestations stopped

In the early 80's a gang of my friends camped on the land close to kilakee. Think they referred to is as Lord Masseys. It's on the left side of the road as you head towards the Hellfire club
It was during the summer and they had set up the tents inside the walls of an old building. The way they described what happened was, the whole area they were in went cold, and not long after that a black cat appeared on one of the walls. It then arched it's back and seemed to morph in shape into something resembling a man wearing a cloak and as suddenly as it had appeared it disappeared in a flash. The temperature then returned to normal and they packed up the tents in record time and got the hell out of dodge.

Personally I love, Masseys, Kilakee & Montepeliar Hill (HellFire Club). I've been going up that way a few times a year since I was 6. Even now I feel safe walking around up there on my own.

Have you ever had any experiences on the dublin mountians. I smell the beginnigs of an overnight camping investigation in Glendalough or up the middle of the mountians?
