    This might gross some of you out but I was walking my dogs in a Coillte forest today and discovered four dead sheep on the side of the path. The forest is very remote and I have never met anyone else on the walk.

    I first thought maybe some farmer dumped them but there was a really bad smell of fish that might suggest something else was going on (if you know what i mean). Also on leaving the park there was two big sticks placed on the ground at the entrance representing a cross. They were intentionally placed that way because no other sticks were in the vicinity. Maybe a marker for a meet up or something?

    Has anyone else seen anything like this before? As in possible cult activity in their area? I remember a farmer in kerry was arrested years ago for riding a sheep. I wonder how common that is though.

    I watched this documentary a few years ago that might explain why I probably don't think it strange that a load of people in my area could have a cult where they ride sheep. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1982102/

    It really is a messed up documentary!

    I don't think the sheep would have been ashamed. Those fluff bottomed temptresses!

    I think the idea that there are satanists or cult people in Ireland doing this sort of thing is highly unlikely. My take on it, is that they are some internet community who get their jollies from pretending to be dangerous or Alternative.

    Ah come on, this is rural Ireland you are talking about, not some colombian jungle or British university

    Coillte forests really aren't what they used to be. Deforestation, it's terrible Joe!

    The smell of a rotting sheep is vile. Accidentally stood on one once jumping down off a crag. It kinda exploded.

    You're right, No matter how drunk I got I'd never shag anyone from Kerry.

    Rotting flesh and rotting fish smell alike, or at least they both make the hair at the back of the neck stand up and you can almost taste the vileness.

    Assert dominance by riding and slaughtering five sheep in the same spot and erecting an even larger cross. Let them know who the big dog is in town. 1-0 Satanists, your move.

    When you say......., "there was a bad smell of fish that might suggest something else was going on ( if you know what I mean)"............. What DO you mean? I'm sorry, its late, way past my bedtime but I don't know what you mean..

    The fishy smell was from the wild mushrooms the OP was eating in the forestðŸ˜


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,591 ✭✭✭hairyslug


    Sorry, that was me, by the time I was finished it was late and I didn't really feel like cleaning up.

    I thought this was going to be yet another 'Country Satanist Vs City Satanist' thread...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 947 ✭✭✭zef


    Whatever about what the OP saw or smelt, one would be foolish to assume that satanists / occult practises do not take place on a daily basis both in the country and city.

    My uncle worked in the security industry during the boom and was driving around a newly built housing estate on the verge of Meath/ Dublin border when he saw a man come up out of a ditch by a stream, bollock naked and covered in blood. Fearing the worst- a murder or something- he rang the Gardai who caught the naked blood covered man and found a dead sheep ritually dismembered freshly killed where he had just appeared from. The Garda told my Uncle that this type of thing "Is more common than you think".

    Only the farm takes up most of the day and in the evening I just like a cup of tea. I wouldn't be able to devote myself full time to the old Satanism


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,809 ✭✭✭Speedwell


    Gee, I know and have known a lot of Satanists (I'm not one; I don't believe in all that mess) and I can't think of anything in the literature or practice that involves doing crap like that. Most of the Satanists I know believe in "an thou harm none, do what thou wilt", and that is definitely considered harm.

    I'm afraid you're going to have to look among the Twilight werewolf fans and batsh!t crazy people (some overlap there) for the perpetrator.

    Sheep with dead smelly lambs and/or metritis maybe would smell very bad. Did you report it? They should have been brought to a knackery not dumped in a wood.

    Rural satanists are getting special grants under the new programme for governement.

    Once again thank you Healy Rae's

    But that's all new-age satanism though isn't it, not the good old rituals and parties kind beloved by 'men of quality'

    I don't know. I wouldn't necessarily have considered Crowleyite, "do as thou wilt an it harm none" Satanism, even as practiced today, to be "new age" Satanism. Heavy-metal, chicken-head-biting, crack-smoking, theatrically made-up extreme Satanism, I might consider that more in the line of sheep killers. But I'm going to put my money down on "werewolf fanatics".

    I swear it by the old gods and the new.

    Joking aside though I have sometimes come across odd little collections of stones and crosses in the woods locally.
