    was there on saturday..
    have to admit that i read this thread before going.. so i was a bit scared.. but i'm also a "wanna be believer" as i never experienced anything myself.. but i think it's coz i may have the extra sensorial ability of a shoe sole.. i mean, ZERO!!
    Anyways.. the place is veeery strange.. went there with someone that didnt know bout this thread or the place or anything.. and he said it looked like a haunted place.. but that's about it..
    I felt like the atmosphere in the passage was like "thicker" if that makes sense.. but i take it was coz sat was a bit of a windy day, and the passage is in a walled area, and those trees that make the passage are so dense.. no wind to be felt in it.. but there was a loads of cans there as like people having parties.. so who would stay there at nite having a drink if the place is so haunted?
    However, i noticed a memorial plaque indicating that was a place of dead of someone named Pachal Doyle.. find it extrange that nobody mentioned this on the thread.. there was some faded flowers and some baby items in the rememberance spot.. but nothing else apart from that.. Does anybody knows what happend to him?
    I also took pics.. nothing strange shows in them.. i'll post them later if i can.. so at least you can see the mental tree stomp thingy..
    Have to say.. if i wouldnt have read this thread i probably would have thought it was a magical place.. for fairys and stuff.. more than a scary one!! :rolleyes:

    Take the Url of your pictures and past it in here. Im interested myself, from an extremely skeptical point of view here.

    Im interested to see if this is just the old gunpowder mill I used to play at as a kid.

    Ok, here are the pics i took.. u can't see much on them .. just the tree stomp.. nothing really weird..
    altho.. and this is kinda funny, but the tree stomp.. you could say it looks like a goats face.. and some branches look like the horns.. you know? I know it's my imagination, it's only marks on the tree..
    Can anybody else see them?

    http://yfrog.com/06dpassagej
    http://yfrog.com/midevilspassagej

    sorry, they're nearly same pic

    So, how can i see spirithunter's pics?


  • Registered Users Posts: 210 ✭✭amira


    OK, managed to see your pics spirithunter..
    Sorry to ask, but what do you see ghostly about them? i just see very dark pics of the place i was on sat.. some of them blurry.. but nothing ghostly..
    Altho.. fairplay to you for going there when it was dark.. i wouldnt have dare...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,246 ✭✭✭✭Riamfada

    I couldnt find anything i went to the bottom of the big baseball field and there was a small trail between it and the fly fishing area that had some small lenghts of wood on the path it was only abou 30meters long. I assume what i am looking for might be in this link though?
    http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=h&...,0.004801&z=18
    There is building stuff in the north/north west of this so i coudnt see a way in but looking at the map now there might be a way in from the n/west of the fishing area? Will try it again if any can confirm its the bit in the middle of the link above.

    Walk along the path leading out of the lake,turn left,walk over the stone bridge,the path is now made up of small stones,the baseball fields are to your right,follow the path until you get the entrance of what looks like the building site,left into here,and the entrance to the passage is on your left,the passage is in the row two rows of trees inside the walled area with the green grass.

    Sorry, i didnt know how to show all the quotes.. just c&p

    Basically on the M50 take the exit on the Red Cow Roundabout.. N7 to limerick. Turn right onto Clondalkin at newlands cross.. i think it's 2nd or 3rd turn to left after that.. there's a sign and all..

    Good luck!

    The memorial is for a guy who committed suicide there a few years ago,there's also a homeless man living there off and on,he sleeps in the remains of the old wall so the empty cans possibly belong to him.

    Ah....the devil's passage - I had a spooky experience there when I was a teenager.
    Myself and some friends went camping overnight in the Devil's Passage.
    Nothing happened the whole night, but the next morning, after my friends left and it was just me and my girlfriend in the tent.
    A hand knocks on the tent and an old man's voice (by the sound of his voice, I'd guess he was in his 70's) saying "Excuse me, did you happen to see two young people walking through here"
    I replied, "No sir" as I was opening the tent
    By the time I'd opened the tent and looked outside (a process that took maybe 3 or 4 seconds), the man was gone - there was no sign of him at all.
    It freaked the **** of out my girlfriend - we quickly got the hell outta there!

    You camped in a park in Clondalkin? That cant be safe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 628 ✭✭✭kranog


    Bah...Clondalkin aint as bad as people make out really - like anywhere, there are good and bad parts!
    Devil's Passage - that's a good part! hehehehe


  • Registered Users Posts: 38 spirithunter


    hello there im sorry that i have not been in here in a while been very busy so about the pics i put up if you look closely and carefully around the vegetation and the wall area of the photo you will see a face.
    also i understand that you all are sceptical of my theories and proof that i do have all i can say is if you want to see video that was made look up on youtube irritating movie creations or fintandetoment31 and my videos will appear in some cases the images that i have spoken of can not be seen please do try and take a look at the pic a little closer if you can zoom in and you will see it....
    i have a lot of information i would like to share with you all on the park hellfire club how they are connected even kilnamanagh this thing goes on forever you might as well say that not all is as it seems when you enter the dark alone...
    i was not alone i had a few others with me that saw stuff figures run through the forest and heard voices call their names.....
    HERE IS ANOTHER IMAGE only this time i circled the area...[IMG]file:///C:/Users/fintan/Desktop/New%20folder%20%282%29/CREEPY.gif[/IMG]:P

    No offense but there is absolutely nothing paranormal about that image.

    Agreed. All I see in that picture are trees and pareidolia.


  • Registered Users Posts: 38 spirithunter


    what i did send you may not look paranormal but it is its a face in the wall


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,123 ✭✭✭GodlessM


    Correction it is a photo of something with a pattern present that we may experience as a face; doesn't mean there is actually a face in the wall. I see Dr.Zoidberg playing the drums in my bathroom floor every so often; doesn't make it real though.

    P.S. You say face in a wall, yet I don't even see a wall (I see trees; no wall contours along the horizontal like that).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,339 ✭✭✭congo_90


    That last pic is grainy and blurred. looks like moss but could be anything but paranormal. read this whole thread but seems to be just a ghost story.
    if i think of it ill charge my cam and head out. take pics of every corner of the place.

    from my own recollection of memories and information that i gathered over the years i know everything there is about the place historically and spiritually...
    ive seen first hand whats in there and escaped others that have seen whats in there were either driven insane or killed or never seen again..

    Seriously? That reads more like something from Lord of the Rings there Gandalf. Can you link to any cases involving dissapearing people in the park?

    Was just in Corkagh Park and found the entrance to the Devil's Passage but unfortunately it's blocked off with construction. Is there no other way in?

    Try the park attendants.
    Was in there several years ago (through a window in an old wall) but think its been blocked off since.

    I think they are the remains of formal gardens or maybe even tennis courts, iirc rows of beech/lime & yew trees.

    It's lovely in an overgrown sort of way, and spooky cos of the light/darkness of the trees. It's a pity it wasn't open to the public now.

    i was on youtube tonight and was taking a look at some videos of ghosts adn demonic possessions and some were funny but there was one that caught my eye and was dead scary was shot on the national geograpic channel about a haunted house and a child being taken over by an old man who died well years before but was found out hea was a demon....

    Im only a teenager, but I know alot about the Devils passage.

    I knew the man who's name is on the plaque, Paschel Doyle, he was a good friend of my families and I know what happened to him but I dare not say.Me and three other friends of mine went in there on wednsday last and i was very afraid.
    My friend had entered ok but came out with numerous cuts on her arm. I went in with a group never on my own and felt like somebody had banged into me. Aswell, I felt someone or something scratch my ankle.My arm had been cut a month or two before and I had also carved perfect into it, Being a kid, you know, and it rose from my arm, no longer a faint scar.
    I also see shadows and hear whispering in there. I believe that what ever is in there is a lost and lonely sole trying to seek help but to no avail.Also, there is a fire outside that never burns out. I find the place eerie and very nauseating.
    But when I leave, I feel fine like a weight was lifted or something.

    There is something strange there and I am going back there tomorrow with the sole intention of finding out!

    I'm surprised to see this thread is still going and I've still yet (after 2 years) to put the pictures up... sadly I can't put them up at present between having no space for my scanner/printer and not being at home. I actually want to go back to check the place out again, although the thought of the place still unnerves me; I certainly wouldn't feel comfortable going there alone at present!


  • Registered Users Posts: 38 spirithunter


    hello there all i know itss been sometime now and that this conversation has still gone on and still not one of us has gotten evidence wxcept one post that caught my eye the girl who said her friend went in and came back out with unexplained cuts on her.
    the main hot spots for activity in the park the entire park are as follows the forests, the dark road that leads tio the old villaga aka the council depot, the council depot, the old gunpowder mills the devils passage these are the most affected areas were at night you will get activity im in the process of doing this because i have an idea im planning what some would call a suicide mission but i call it getting proof in different areas and places like st audones church, corkagh park, the hell fire club killiney hill aka the witches hat i am not sure when ill get round to getting to all of these places but i will i have a video i put to gether on youtube of woodlawn house aka the hell house of galway if interested ill post the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eW64qsyo4E anyway here is the link to youtube or copy and past this in and youll see a scary place

    i was over in corkagh park tonight just a whileago testing out as to how good my nightvision camera was its not much good at all its a poxy waste i rather have a good one so used my cam phone as well i am going to take a look at the pics i got and see if i can edit them in a different view as in coloration to see if it works or fails....
    ill tell ya this though somthing chased me accross that field i ran as fast as i could at frist i thought it was a junkie or drunk or somthing but when it came a little closer it was floating i ran i mean i ran as fast as i could im tellin ya this now im not goin over there again at night on my own no way not after what happened well its up to those who want to investigate it they can the time i went over 12midnight tonight if you do go over and if you do run into a scumbag because there does be others over there drinking takin drugs etc so its advisable to bring some protection not the spiritual kind but the physical kind


  • Registered Users Posts: 38 spirithunter

    Looks to me like a green laser pen. I have one in my car. Im guessing whoever was shining the green light were the same people who chased you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 38 spirithunter


    the picture i put there was no light at all no green lasers anything just the little light i had on my phone whrn takin the pics

    Right folks I live right beside corkagh park here in merry old Clondalkin, I fell upon this thread last night during one of my restless nights while the lady friend snored to her hearts content.

    Im going to clear up everything about this place anything anyone wants to know feel free to ask.
    I swear to god im going to have photos by tomorrow night of this place and some other eerie spots around the park.
    I wish I had photos of the place about ten years ago before they put the new road through the back of the park beside the old orchard and knocked the bamboo fields near the playground in my opinion they were creepier places or the wall orchard with the bells in the trees ,ill have a nice day trip tomorrow and get some photos and sow you all what this place is actually like
