OK, the du Pont (which is how it's properly written) Barn has now been completely renovated and is no longer a hotbed for UL feeding.
There is nothing going on on Cossart Road. This is mass hysteria without a single, I repeat, single piece of concrete evidence to support it.
There are no videos of being chased by trucks, not even a photo. All we have are eyewitness accounts of people looking for something scary. In addition, these accounts vary widely, without much of a primary theme aside from 'something evil is being protected'. Now, if a video was produced which showed that they were actually on Cossart Road and filmed this chasing and the sudden vanishment of the truck, I would reconsider everything I have said to the contrary. I don't think this is too much to ask and I wouldn't do so if so many of you hadn't claimed to have been chased.
I'm sure some people may have been 'followed' on the road by someone driving too fast- its a rural area and tailgaters are common all over back roads in the area. But the sudden disappearence of these vehicles has a) been addressed and b ) probably the result of suggested memory, over excitement, or blatant falsehood (probably the later).
However, as just stated if proper evidence (as outlined in the previous paragraph) is brought forward, I will recant my statement in a full and public apology on this wwwsite.
There is also considerable confusion about which house even is the "Cult House". I have found 5 different locations of the house, just on this thread alone.
This is a pure Urban Myth, sparked by the murders in the 1970s. Plain and simple.
Full Version: House of the unholy
Ok Marty, sorry to have mispelled the name. According to THIS SITE, there are many variations on the spelling and pronunciation of the "du Pont" name. If the members who have posted on this forum previously were graded on spelling and grammar, most would get an F. But you kind of side stepped my point, and made me think of a few others.
My point of interests about this place are many, but at the end of my last post, i questioned why the du Pont family name is mentioned in at least (3) 'unexplained' locales across the tri state area?, and probably more? Good thing the that barn was renovated, i;m sure the spirt there left as soon as the new wallpaper was put up. They also changed the windows on the Amityville house in Long Island....does that change what happened there? If any of us have spent any time reading this site at length, can we really make ourselves believe that by renovating a building we also renovate it's "spiritual energy".
That aside, to dismiss the 'cult house' because you havent seen a tape? To you believe in big foot after that video, or loch ness? All jokes aside i guess what i am really saying that in a court of law, this road would be found guilty of something out of place. I counted well over a dozen accounts of vehicles on that road following people in a threatening manner. No judge would need a tape on this. Eyewitness account is enough to commit someone of murder in a court, and we have plenty of eyewitness, all giving a very similar story.
My last thought - I read several times through this post about locals who sad their dad or uncle remebered this road as being a 'scary' place as far back as the 70's or 80's. Lets assume their is no 'satanic cult' (which i don't buy anyway) in those woods, and nothing unusual about that house. Lets assume that those trees are just genetically messed up, there is no secret society, and the murders in the woods there were just a horrific incident with no reprecussions.
Why does almost every story involve the truck or car that chases them at high speeds? And a vehicle that approaches too fast, and in many cases seemingly disappears? Can we honestly believe this is a group of locals feeding an urban myth and making an effort to scare people on that road for 30 plus years? If that is the truth, then these locals sound like members of a secret society to me - to have continued this tradition for all this time and never been exposed.

Most, if not all of the answers to your questions are contained within the thread.
In addition, the full nature of the situation would also be a factor to any judge. This is a known road for people to go to get scared. These are not twelve people who were randomly chased 'in a menacing pattern' down a road which does not have this UL attached to it, but people who were already in violation of a township ban on driving the road, with the intent to 'see if it's true'. My friend, that is corrupted evidence and they would be laughed at as teenagers with overactive imaginations... unless they provided proof. The reality of what would probably happen is they would be fined for driving the road and sent home.
Your argument about story similarity is a moot point, all ULs include many similarities along with vastly differing additions. One account builds upon another, this case is no different.
With regard to the du Pont's, they are the most influencial family in Delaware, of course their name will be connected with more haunted places etc. This is a topic which was discussed at length within the thread.
I am glad to hear that you feel there is no satanic cult. In addition, if you read my posts in this thread, I did offer a number of alternative suggestions concerning this matter. Most interestingly being that a string of murders took place on the road in the 1970s... right when the UL began. There is a very real likelihood that there is a paranormal root to this, just not a satanic/masonic/illuminati/cult related one.
I have also said repeatedly (and was ignored) that any paranormal activity of the place would most likely be connected to the third body which was not found. I am not opposed to the idea of a haunting/repercussions etc.
What I am opposed to is dogmatic belief in this UL where the only proof is bunch of unproven and semi hysterical accounts of being chased, accounts which are fed to people before they go down the road. To continue with your legal references, this would be called tainting the witness and would also be inadmissable. The same theory applies to a detective 'jogging' someones memory of the suspect before showing them mug shots. Really illegal.
In psychological terms, it's suggested perception. If you think you're going to be chased and are in the primal state of fear which such a journey induces, any car coming down the road is chasing you. And before you mention the truck/SUV thing, there are a *lot* of trucks and SUVs in this area.
In addition, being one of the said 'locals', the UL is self perpetuating.
That's the nature of urban legends.
BTW, I wasn't implying that if the barn was haunted, the renovation removed said haunting, in fact I believe the renovation would have stirred up more activity. However, I question the concept that it was ever an active place... just more for the UL mill cause the Barn looked creepy as hell.... But that's a topic for another thread.

i have read this thread twice, and find few of my questions answered.
the du Pont name is tied to these "paranormal" places because they are wealthy? there are many powerful, influential, wealthy families in the northeast, why them? and most of the locations i have mentioned are in PA, not DE. you posted on the "normalcy" of the du Ponts, my research has found otherwise (no hard feelings)
my last post only stated that i think this road is guilty of "something out of place" in other words something worth looking into further. 30 plus years of accounts of trucks/suvs following people and disappearing? i feel that the number of first hand accounts indicates
something more than "mass psychology". i went to that road with few expectations. many cars/vehicles passed us that night while we were driving or taking pictures. none seemed out of place until the last vehicle. i cannot vouche for the first hand experiences of anyone else who posted here, but i know what myself and my three friends experienced.
i have been thinking about the johnston murders of the late 70s, and how the missing body may tie in to this story. i just can't get it to add up. why would this missing person be driving a "ghost truck", chasing people...(that felt silly to type). i just can't figure how this body would tie into the house, the skull tree, the bent trees, the vehicles, the animals, or almost any of the stories i have read about occurances on this road. i am planning on more research into these murders, and will post info/ideas if i have them.
i have also been thinking about the fines that were inacted, from what i have read in 2002 & 2003. i think this traffic was more likely a result of the movie "The Village" which finished filming in 2003. M Night Shylaman (sp?) probably gets alot more press than the cult house ever will. and i would bet that this traffic was people hoping to catch a glimpse of a star. just a theory. the fine was lifted in 2003 right? probably after the movie crew picked up and left?
i really don't know anything about that barn, aside that the du Ponts owned it.
and i would also like to add that i am not really expecting answers, just continuing interesting convo.

im just thinking, if you pass by the house and someone has followed you twice, i believe following someone for no reason is illegal, i mean its not like you went into the house or drive way you just passed by it, why dont you have the local police department send in some cars into the road that runs off the house and have them sit in the woods with the lights off, explain to them that someone follows you in a red truck with its lights of at night which is also against the law, you need to have your lights on at night, the cops could bring them down to the station for questioning just for that, anywayz once that person follows you have the cops stop them and look into it, i mean the local police should help you, and im pretty sure that wether its a cult house or not, they arent allowed to sacrifice humans, so the police should defintly look into this, i mean even if theres no evidence about actual sacrifices, the other evidence about them following you for several miles with lights off is enough to make the cops suspicous that something strange is going on in that area and house.
I do believe you can not shoot a tresspasser who is unarmed in Pennsylvania.
To Marty, I myself searched for the Cult House or Satanville or whatever you would like to call it, I think we MAY have found the rennovated cult house, the window panes were still like inverted crosses but the house and the garage looked normal. I think in the past like in the 60's and 70's there was a Satanic Cult tied to the murders, but I dont believe there was any paranormal activity. I think it was just self-proclaimed Satanists trying to really be Satanists. I don't think there is anything special about it, just teenagers looking for a fun time.

the laws in pennsyvania on shooting a trespasser are quite strict. you have to be backed into a corner with no place to go and the aggressor has to be a threat. my half brother served time for shooting a man, in his house, who had threathened he and his girlfriend. the guy broke down the front door and entered the living room. my brother shot him, after warning him he was going to do so and was later charged and convicted of assault. it is illegal to shot someone simply because they are on your property.
the murders in the late 70s have nothing to do with a satanic cult. for more info CLICK HERE.
Well that just goes to show how much I wish something out of the ordinary would happen :/, It's not to say for sure there weren't satanic rituals, but that article is enough for me to discredit SatanVille for good.

just wanted to keep this thread going. i do not think that article discredits anything except for some of the outlandish accusations i have read here about this road. i believe there is something going on.
i found this article, abou the leader of the gang dying in 2002CLICK HERE
the name of the victim who was never found was James Sampson. it was reported that his body was claimed to be buried in the Lanchester Landfill, but that is much further north.
honestly i do not think the unfound body has any bearing on the events on this road. but i do not rule out the spirits of the boys who were found. "in the middle of a sprawling estate in Chadds Ford." can anyone find out what estate this was?
BBH Productionz is currently making an documentary on "The Cult House". We've been down the road at least two dozen times in the last week and are taking video and still pictures of the area. If you are interested in checking it out, go to http://www.bbhproductionz.org. We have a forum there dedicated specifically to the Cult House.

Well welcome aboard!
A funny story: My parents live up in the Elverson/Morgantown area, on a small "farmette" in a (sort-of) rural area. They do not always lock all the outbuildings, cars, etc. upon leaving to run errands. But, when one of the Johnston Brothers escaped from prison a few years ago, my Dad saw it on the news and started locking up everthing anytime he went out, leaving no farm tractors or equipment in the yard. My parents live like 45 miles from Chadds Ford, but thought the Johnstons would be "after their stuff"! My Dad had remembered hearing about the Johnston Brothers (he called them the "Johnson Brothers") when he was on his farm in West Chester!
I would like to share my experience at the "Cult House". We called it the Satan Church, but whatever. I am from delaware county, PA which is about half an hour away from there. Much of the information I've read in this thread about the location is correct. Although the mansion with the guard house near the covered bridge is wrong. (the only way I know that is because we went looking for this place the weekend before, and that is where we ended up. Thats just a big old house. It is creepy though.) Anyway, about 10 years ago, when I was in high school, a whole crew of us went there, probably about 15 0f us, and on our second try we found the right place. We went down there at night, and it was scary as hell. The house (looked more like a church to me) sat atop a huge hill in a glen, with trees curling away from it. The building had a very strange architecture, with crosses in the windows. also had weird stuff spraypainted on it, but that was probably from kids, I forget exatly what was written. there was also a concrete podium sort of thing about 100 yards away from the house. I also don't think anyone was living there, but I could be wrong. There was no driveway or entrance that we saw.
Anyway, where the story goes bad is when we were up there exploring the place, we saw car lights down at the bottom of the hill, through the trees where we parked our cars. So we thought, "aww man, the cops are here I guess we better go back now." So we did. And as we made our way back down the hill out from behind the trees sprang a bunch of people attacking us! We all took off running. Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of someone trying to hit me In the back of the head with an ax handle, which i blocked with my arm, (got a nice bruise from it though) A couple of other guys got hit, and a couple others cot cut with Knives. Luckily no serious injuries though.
Once we had scattered, those of us who weren't out hiding were rounded up by our cars, by these men who looked to me to be ex-millitary. There were about 9 of them, all with their shirts off, some with tattoos, and pretty strong looking, ranging in age from about 35 to 55. Seeing these guys gives me the idea that the Neo-nazi angle of this legend might be the right one. These guys sure as hell were no hired guards, they were a local militia of rednecks. Their excuse is that we were vandalizing their homes with baseball bats. Of course, there were no other homes in that immediate area, and we were totally unarmed, not to mention that we were there for all of ten minutes. Anyway after keeping them at bay for a few minutes, the state police showed up. Some of the rednecks were mad at the one who called the cops. Who knows what would have happened if they didnt. The police were really nice, and said "I hate it when they beat up the kids." So apparently these local guys just wait for people to go check out the place, and then sneak attack them. Anyway, they told us to get out of there and were lecturing the attackers when we left. All in all, pretty scary stuff. And if you ever go there, the craziest old guy's name is George, and he will chase you with a knife. Sorry for the long post but I thought you all would like to hear everything

wow. I say we go up there with some 9's and then see whats up.
I find this house very interesting. Don't know why. =/ I got a book for Christmas with this house in it. But I don't know if I should believe it or not to be honest. Someone said something about a picture of the raging truck, etc. Because all we have is 'stories,' not true proof. ^^
Hey, My name's Sarah and I live near the DE/PA border. My roommate and I have been looking into the house urban legends and set out to try and find it but we couldn't.
I did find some trees that matched the description on a road called Cossart road, but I'm pretty sure I was in the wrong area.
Anyone know where the DuPont house is exactly?

If you saw the "funky tree" then you're on the right road. One more thing, bring a camera! Video camera or a normal camera. Because proof would be awsome, Sarah. Also do some research by putting "DuPont House" in your local search engine. << Or something like that. ^^ Edit: Be careful if the rumors are true about the house.
This is one interesting house and area. I think if you look at the earlier replies a couple of people found it on maps and maybe gave directions. 
Nobody here has given direct directions Sarah. My group has been researching this place for months and havent found THE "House" we've seen alot of places that may be the place, but if you were to ask ten people where it was all ten would give you a different answer.
Hey, Sarah. Put in "The Unholy House" and look for the road. Then go to map quest to get directions. =3 Just a thought.
Cossart Road is really not very long at all. There can only be so many buildings along this road.

Not too sure if anyone has really talked about this "legend" before, but it's something I thought was pretty interesting. I read about it a few years ago, and up until recently still thought this place was real and it was all true. I did some research and found out some pretty interesting things.
The tales are of a strange family with the name Dupont. Supposedly their house used to be a church which was used to wed with their cousins. They hid inbreds who were the results of incest. They have "guards" that drive pickup trucks that will chase you away if you get too close to the house.
Some people even said the road this house was located could not be found on any map. Some even say the house is/was owned by the KKK or Satan worshippers who have satanic rituals and human sacrifices at the house.
The trees on the southern side seem to grow away from the house, some say it's due to the evil deeds that occur there. There's even a tree they call "the skull tree" because it's roots resemble a human skull.
Then there's a site where a lot of people claim to have been chased by the red pickups, harrassed by the Hell's Angels, and saw blood on stop signs.
It gets funny though, because when I started researching around about the place I found out that it does have a name, there are some Dupont's but never had inbreds, or such, and people have been chased.. but we'll get to that a bit later.
The house they call the "cult house" is located on Cossart Road in Chadds Ford Chester County PA.
The trees on the southern side do indeed tilt away from the house, but they are on a decline growing on a hill. Also, limbs had been cut away that did lean towards the house to prevent them from interfering with power lines.
The skull tree does exist, and it's roots do resemble a skull.
[B}People did indeed get chased, and they may have thought they were being chased by the KKK or satan worshipping guards of the house.. but in fact were being chased by teenagers messing around. They were pretty much chasing eachother, these kids would go out on the road looking for something scary at the same time other ones would, and alot of times they scared eachother.
Vandalism was popular on the road, people who lived on the road being harrassed, their land trespassed on, and just all kinds of other things were occurring. (Here's a snippet from a website I found about the place)
"Terry _____ submitted a written report to the Board on Cossart Road and relating the consistent problems the residents have with vandalism, loittering, grafatti, field fires and noise. This happens mainly between the hours of 10 P.M. and 2 A.M. The road seems to have a reputation for cruising, drinking, and drugs."[/B]
**The problem got so bad that the residents of the road actually hired private security to patrol the road. Between joke playing vandals, and these security patrols, any account of being followed on Cossart Road can be easily explained.
Now as for the house itself, some one had one part right..... the house was owned by the Duponts for some time. The house was previously owned by a little old lady who was a DuPont, but unfortunately she passed away about 6 years ago. Now the house is owned by an elderly man, who everyone in the area has met. He keeps to himself mosty, but strongly denies that there is any Cult activity going on at his house.
After years of vandalism, the municipality has been trying to put an end to the stories. An abandoned building , along with a good number of the warped trees, have been removed from the area. Also, for the last year, the road has been closed except for local traffic. Permission from the township is required to travel the road, and violators will face a fine of up to $1000. The road is planned to be closed indefinately, unless all activity ceases.** (Here's the website where you can read the posts and legends about it for yourself http://www.angelfire.com/punk3/mckenna913/cossart.html pretty interesting I thought)
And if that isn't bad enough, the last thing I read about the place was an article posted by someone on a motorcycle messageboard warning people to be careful if travelling on Cossart Road as a few teens strung a fishing line across the road tied to trees, at about neck length. No one was harmed and someone must of got a glimpse of who did it as there was a description of the boys.
but wow, what a crazy place. I used to want to visit it (when I actually believed the stories) but that is one place I want to stay away from. lol.
It appears to be a ground for Hells Angels. A massive gang of Harley riding, tattooed motorcyclists.
Well I believe I found the house and I decided to go up there on Halloween night..Taking my video Camera with me. If I catch anything of interest I'll put it on the internet and post a link for all to see.

You all are stupid if you trespass on Halloween ( or any day for that matter). What the hell is your problem?

People just want to see the house that they've heard so much about. Its actually a simple matter of curiousity. I drove down Cossart last night I guess around 8:30PM so it was already dark. First off the road was hard to find and its a public road so driving down the road itself is fine. However, once you start getting to the point where theres no one on the road but you and its pitch black outside the car its kinda creepy. I don't think there is any sort of Satanic activity there at all to be honest. I didnt go up to the infamous "church" what yanno what ever.
Nothing weird happened, well, something kinda did, but it wasn't really weird. It was more strange. A small brown barn owl flew over the car right after we passed the "main gate" and then shortly after that the bird landed in the road right infront of our car. It sat there staring up at us inside the car, not the front of the car itself. It was strange to say in the less 'cause why the hell would an owl do that? I didn't really think much of it and still don't...
We didn't get chased out of there in black SUV's or pick-ups. No one yelled at us... Infact... It was just a drive down a narrow bumpy creepy road. I guess I can see where the legends come from, but yanno... I am going to back there with someone other than my friend Sarah...Preferably a guy.... Cause well two girls aren't gonna do sh** if something happens... and I want to go up to this "church" I want to see what all the damn fuss is about.
All in all I was rather disappointed. I was hoping something was going to happen and nothing did. If anyone wants to go up there with us, I guess to just drop me a line. Yeah, you may be tresspassing, but you know what, if its your first offence you get a warning.. Especially, you would think with a place like that were EVERYONE does it. So, yeah, its not like anyone is going to call the cops some old man might just come out and yell at you..
I understand people wanting to see the house, I really do. But it's still trespassing. It's silly, childish, and irresponsible.
While yes, driving down the road is technically legal at the moment, there is a long history of the road being off limits to anyone who doesn't live there. For quite some time there was a serious fine for driving down the road. Even without a posted fine, if the police want to hassel you for driving up and down the road repeatedly, they can do so very easily (harassment of the residents etc).
And trespassing is the most basic charge if you are caught on someone's private property. They can charge you with intent to commit larceny (even if you don't take anything, they can charge you for just looking like you might), trespassing, criminal mischeif, invasion of privacy (if you're filiming, taking photos, or looking into the house), vandalism, breaking and entering (if you go over a gate to get in or anything along those lines), etc etc etc.
I'm not saying this is exactly what you will be charged with, but they are all possibilities depending on the officers. In addition, if you're the one who gets caught, you'll possibly be charged with almost everything that took place on the road that specific night (and Halloween is quite the night there). God help you if you're drunk or high.
My point being, there's nothing there, so don't break the law for kicks. It's just dumb.

Never said I was going on the actual property. I have my own means for seeing or getting information. Besides, if you're not the one doing it you shouldnt care nor worry about it. Its not irresponsible or childish. As the other person said its a matter of curiousity. If you dont like it thats your own opinion.

Well I believe I found the house and I decided to go up there on Halloween night..Taking my video Camera with me. If I catch anything of interest I'll put it on the internet and post a link for all to see.
If anyone wishes to come along, let me know and we'll pick a spot to meet.

Well guys, if anybody is interested we have put video up on our website from our last couple trips to satanville . There are three videos in total and one is of the tree, which basically everybody has already seen, but its still important to the legend. The second one, is of possibly the cult house. We found this house that we think my be it so we shot some video and wanted to get some feedback from people who have been there to see if it actually was it. The third video was of us getting chased out by a blue car. Everybody says, you dont get chased, but you do. Not all the time, but probably about 1/2 the times ive been down there we were chased. Not saying that the whole legend thing is true, but other "kids" will chase you. Thats the part that gets very annoying. If you want to see the videos they are up on our site.....

Cool videos and I like the site. Me and my roommate were just talking about starting something that you guys have got going. We figured the Cult house would be our first adventure.

They only take windows media player to run or they wont play until you put you mouse over them. Under each video captain, run your mouse over the black box and they should work.
Haha, thats awesome sarah. We're always looking for more people to join us on our adventures if you guys/gals are interested.

that fine lasted about a year. and from what i can tell it was during the filming of the movie "the village"

what does a criminal look like? beyond that, you can only be charged with that if you are found guilty of the following - (breaking and entering) (burglary) (entering without breaking)

No really I have to agree with the wookie here. It is childish and irresponsible. Did you not read the story about that teen girl that was shot dead just for trespassing on property that was supposedly haunted? It's not a joke, kids.

well that truly is tragic.
but people getting shot while exploring paranormal places happens less than people getting hit by lightning.

Well keep your umbrellas at home and improve your odds. edited for grammar
If there was something dodgy going on the authoritys would of stepped in and stopped it.
If i lived there i would be anoyed with everyone turning up to look, and remember you have no right to be on private property.
Old creepy looking house, a bit of dark history, is that all you need in America for the house to scare the sh** out of you. If that scares you, there are places in England with dark history which would give you a heart attack.

Well, it was nice to finally see some videos of this road and tree.
My only suggestions are next time try not to shake the video so much...I was getting motion sickness. And cut down on the swearing. It doesn't sound so professional.
Other than that, it was good.
