The Real Haunted Story of St Michan’s Church

Real Story

By TheNaethPublished about a year ago 2 min read

One of Ireland's most populous and important cities is Dublin. A Gaelic colony appeared in the region in the 700 S and in 841 the Vikings founded a new town they called de Flynn. It sounds and looks like Dublin, doesn't it? Who first used the name Dublin as opposed to the older Irish term Dublin, meaning Blackpool in English, is a matter of some dispute. That Dublin was the major settlement of Ireland by the 12th century. Several decades later, at the turn of the 20th century,

Dublin was named capital. Where today's. Michelan's Church sits was once a Chapel constructed by Vikings who settled the region. The ancient Viking Foundation was preserved for the construction of a Christian Church in 1095. Its use has varied over the years, from a Christian Chapel to a Catholic Church and even a Norse Chapel.

The building has had various modifications and has changed ownership several times. Preservation and expansion of the cryptocurrency after its construction. The exact date of construction is still a matter of contention, with some accounts putting it even further back in time. Some claim to have felt the touch of a spectral hand. And tales of the dead conversing in the subterranean tunnels stretch back centuries.

In the ones that. Uploaded the preserved bodies within showed signs of mummification that had not been subjected to any kind of artificial preservation. Possible culprits for the mummification include the limestone walls of the crypt and the methane gas in the wetland under the buildings base.

The temperature seldom changes and the air is dry. Nothing spoils in the crypt because of the damp, dark climate. Everything just dries up the flesh on their bodies. It's become leathery. Some of their desiccated organs are visible and some still have fingernails on.

Since none of the more recent coffins have shattered, the locals are working from the assumption that all of the coffins hold preserved mummies. Because it is against the law to open a sealed coffin. No one knows if the more recent ones contain mummies. The Crusader is the name of one of the mummies.
