Villagers demans 'bad luck cottage' to be demolished..

Angry_Mammarys

'Susan Dunne moved into the house with her 18-year-old autistic son just months before her death.
Her son Patrick now stands accused of her murder.
The local parish priest told The Irish Examiner that locals believe there is ‘mi-adh’, or bad luck, associated with the house.
It is believed that the unassuming college replaced an older structure at the site sometime in the second half of the last century.
There have been five deaths associated with the property in the decades since.
One man who lived there was stabbed in Wales, another died in a road accident, while there have been three tragic deaths in the house – all involving different families.
The issues of the property was brought to the council’s attention by means of a motion tabled at the first meeting of the Listowel electoral area council.
The council has confirmed that it is considering the call to knock the cottage, however is doing so with sensitivity as the personal belongings of Ms Dunne remain at the house'


What do you think ?Would you live there? I personally wouldn't take the chance, even just knowing about the awful luck the previous tenants have had, would really put me off:eek:


DEMANDS BTW, NOT DEMANS!

I got a little exited then, I thought it was a thread on 'cottaging'.

Probably built on an old Indian burial ground.

I think your first link is haunted. It seems to end up in a lost corner of the Independent.

Fox_In_Socks

Yeah, I'd live there. There are no ghosts or luck, though if the previous history of the owners of the place plays on your mind, then you may be influenced that way.

Ditch

No bloody way would I live there! :eek:

Here this should work http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/villagers-demand-bad-luck-cottage-be-demolished-after-five-deaths-30438828.html

I heard it's the ghost of Hitler and that on every 6th full moon it takes the form of a grotesque animal that eats the local cats and when it yawns it sounds like Liam Neeson chasing chickens inside a barrel.

The Backwards Man

If you believed in such nonsense surely the last thing you should be doing is tossing it and pissing it off?

Pumpkinseeds

So what's to stop the priest from giving it a blessing/cleansing, or whatever they call it these days?

conorh91

What's the point of knocking it?

If another family want to take "the risk" (using that term liberally), what's the problem?

And don't suggest rebuilding another cottage. This isn't even the original "mí-ádh cottage", the original was already demolished and this one rebuilt.

Knasher

I don't know, it looks a little isolated. It would probably be a nightmare to get a decent internet connection.

Ooooh aye, lad. And some say his ears aren't quite where you'd expect them to be, neither.

I believe the correct term these days is "blasting with Holy Piss".

Is it credible that a temporal malignancy roams the world and localises itself in a particular place?

The answer must be "yes".

Pumpkinseeds

I don't even see what the point of demolishing the cottage would be, surely if the place was cursed the land would be affected as well. Reminds me of an episode of American Horror Story where they demolish the haunted house and the evil lurks in the earth waiting for it's next chance:D

Y'see, that's the whole problem with your demonic trans-dimensional malignant presence. They have a blatant disregard for property law.

By "temporal malignancy" do you mean "backward gob****es"?

catallus

Are you suggesting that the demon was summoned as a result of the property-tax?

Angry_Mammarys

Maybe there is just really bad luck associated with the place, well clearly there is, but I think they have a point in wanting it to be knocked down, its gonna be quite hard to get someone else to move in.

catallus

I'd move into it, no ****ing problem!

I've got my holy-water pistol. Bring it on.

BrokenArrows

I'd live there no problem

Angry_Mammarys

Fair play to yas! not a chance would I step foot in it! there has to be some awful energy in the house, especially since there was a murder in it not too long ago.

Well I certainly wouldn't bury my dead dog in the garden anyway...

Perfect opportunity to shunt the country's growing plethora of sceptics into a building, record a show, gather revenue and the last one alive wins the property.

In the freezer... with my ex!

josip

Nope.
I also think they should try to work out what's causing the mi-adh and resolve that.
The Irish Mail should get in there with their ground penetrating radar contractors for a start.
Otherwise the lresless spirits could be putting the mi-adh in whatever is grown in that field.
Imagine wondering for the rest of your life when you're buying spuds in Kerry, if they were grown in the mi-adh fielld and will give you some incurable disease...

cml387

I'd move in,and call the house Amityville.

goat2

they did not expand on whether the three other deaths were natural causes or accidents,
how can someone blame the bricks and mortar of the house for a road accident, this could happen any of us,
the man stabbed in wales was unfortunate to meet a bad individual,
and the lady that died, i feel sorry for her family and son, but i believe we cannot blame the building.

yes i would live there,
it looks nice in the picture,

You have to remove the topsoil and use blessed hardcore for the new structure, make sure you don't get the pyrite stuff, that'll wreck everything.

This would also need to be done in the dead of night, and observed by a crowd of village yokel types in straw hats and carrying lanterns and stout cudgels.

Doing it in the dead of night would be the harder part of this I suspect.

The place isn't made of limestone is it? Cause that stuffs a notorious bitch for conducting paranormal activity.

Much of the Munster region, including the whole Golden Vale, is limestone, much like Wiltshire, Devon and Cornwall. Ooor-harrr mum, Oi loikes coider, oi do!!

I'd be more along the lines of thinking it'd be a weirdo attraction... There's bound to be a few oddballs hurtling towards it with their ouija bards under their arms!

Ah well, your actual Burren, right, is basically this giant lump of chalk. This is why the place is full of weirdos, bumpkins, and beared fiddle-playing gombeen-men.

Whoa there!

You shouldn't poo-poo the voodoo.

How do you know they're not there?!

Capt'n Midnight

All they have to do is club together , pool their money and buy the house and knock it down themselves.

Otherwise they are asking for others to subsidise their superstitions.

Calibos

Hopefully a non-retard will be able to snap up the cottage at a fire-sale price. The 30 year old fellow sceptic dies of a heart attack 40 years later at age 70 and all the locals go, "See, we told ye that place was bad luck but he just wouldn't listen!!" :rolleyes:

Lixnaw: population 248.

I don't think that I've ever seen the name of a small rural village as much as Lixnaw, the location of this “mí-ádh”. It has been in the news several other times over the years.

The mí-ádh doesn't seem to be confined to just one house in the area.

Surely if a demon is present on the property, that would incur the new 'indigenous demonic ethic cultural group tax'?

Would never live there, looks to small.

Who knows could be caused by a disruption in the space-time continuum.

Maybe if they add a flux capacitor under the floorboards and re-modulate the deflector dish on the side of the house, that could sort it all out.
