    its in the "dundalk leader" newspaper, its a free paper that goes around the college. I had looked up a website for it, but dundalkleader.com appears to be under construction. U planning on taking them to court on the grounds u were quoted without your consent by a paper?..if so, remember who tipped u off!:D:D

    If its a free paper, which circulates the college and of course it is quoting my alter ego, i think its worth a go? :pac:

    My friend's younger brother who is only 10 was in his local shop in Fatima Park, Dundalk when he walked in. He told me that he just stood in the middle of the shop and stared at him, then he went behind the counter and stood there, before leaving. That happened 2 weeks ago, just after the first sighting.

    This lad was in Manydown Close housing estate on the red barns road in Dundalk last Saturday night! he knocked on the living room window of the house I was in at the time. the curtains were closed, and my friend Alexi, who owns the house, opened the curtains and shrieked when she saw him. He stayed at the window for thirty seconds roughly but he sprinted off when we went to the front door. jaysus, he can run like an olympian. i dont think he was holding a knife or anything, like some people are saying. Alexi was in tears of absolute horror for a long time afterwards :(

    I should probably mention some small details. Well, he came in to the shop stared at my friend's brother like I said, and when he asked "Why are you staring at me?" The guy went behind the counter and as he did this, the cashier climbed over it. A minute or two later he took off and got into a car. My friend's brother says it was a silver car, and there were 3 or 4 other lads in it. He had a knife with blood on it, but my friend thinks that it was a fake. This took place just after the first sighting, but before we knew about the whole thing. He told me about it a few days later when I called down for him, the day after that we saw an article in a newspaper. Like I said, it happened in the shop in Fatima Park, Dundalk

    Well that is all he told me, hope it helps.

    That sounds very upsetting. Just out of interest, where did he run to?

    Also, is there people signing up to boards.ie because of this thread? ive noticed a few new people have posted their first ones here?

    Alexi's house is just opposite the greenwood drive entrance, he ran out onto the rad barns road and down to the point road. we were going to follow him, but Alexi was majorly spooked! Yes, I signed up after my friend showed me the article in the paper earlier today, and it mentioned a thread about the man.

    Yeah, he said she hopped over it. I would too if a 6 ft tall guy came at me with a knife, whether it was fake or not....

    I don't know if that was the car I wasn't there, but I will ask him tomorrow and tell you guys.

    Yeah I just joined to discuss the incident.

    NEWS UPDATE:
    Todays (wednesday 19th November, Drogheda independant, page 2)
    Masked man seen in Dale

    Mother and child in shock encounter EXCLUSIVE


    A TERRIFIED woman and child saw the 'Tullyallen Terror' wearing his white mask in the Dale last Thursday afternoon, Drogheda gardai have confirmed.
    The local woman and child were taking a shortcut from the Dublin Road when the man loomed out of the twilight. He was dressed all in black and wearing the Michael Myer's mask from the horror movie, Halloween.
    The woman was shocked and frightened by her experience, which happened around 4.30pm on Thursday, November 13th.
    She immediately reported the incident to gardai who have identified the man.
    As reported in last week's Drogheda Independent, the man whose white mask, slicked back hair and a navy boiler suit resembles the character Michael Myers from the film Halloween, was spotted on numerous occasions in Tullyallen.
    He was first seen in Tullyallen graveyard on November 2nd when he terrified a 12-year-old boy who saw him covering headstones with black plastic bags. The masked man was also challenged in the Mace shop where he refused to remove his mask and fled outside where he got into an Audi car.

    For anyone unaware of the dale, it is the bridge which goes underneath the dublin road and onto the marsh road.
    i mentioned it in a previous post about schoolchildren being warned "not to go this way after school".

    might have been the same day...

    No, from the sounds of it the gardaí are giving the idea that because he hasnt committed any crimes he cant be caught.

    He seems to get around, but appears to be confined to Louth. Any sightings of the Boogeyman in Meath, Dublin or Monaghan?

    I'm surprised he hasn't slaughtered any pets yet. That would up the ante. Beware of the boogeyman!!:eek:

    A part to the article i didnt post is:
    Since then there have been numerous sightings of him in Drogheda and even parts of east Meath. But the woman's encounter in the Dale is the only one which has been reported to gardai.

    So the sightings are:

    Dundalk,
    Drogheda,
    Tullyallen,
    Termonfeckin,
    Laytown area(could include mornington, bettystown)
    Gormanstown.

    Any more?

    i wonder could it now be some students copying him?

    not blaming all students, but you know when you're that age and have nothing better to do.
    i really dont see how he could get around to that many towns otherwise
