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?

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.

If I could somehow mark the point on google maps for you I would!
This might help, its a lot easier to make out thn in the google map

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!

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:

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!

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

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

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

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).

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

That's not a face. Clutching at straws with that photo

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..

I'm sure they were :rolleyes:

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?

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....
ok as for the devils passage well there is a lot of paranormal activity up there you just have to kbow were to look and i know all the best spots 1 the devils passage 2 the council yard 3 the gunpowder mill 4 the woods beside the old mansion (devils passage) if its creepies you want you have to go up there at a certain time to catch them but if you do go up mind yourself and carry a wepon with you trust me its not safe especially at night

Thanks for that post, it made me smile

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!
