Sean Manchester - Vampire Hunter

This is a direct quote from the V.S.R webpage:

"
. When discovery was made in early 1974 of a vampire within the bowels of a derelict mansion, however, he impaled and cremated it."

This seems to refute the claim made by 'Myth' that mr M never claimed to have staked a vamp doesnt it? :D

What he would probably say is he never used a "stake " in 1970 at Highgate Cemetery - but gallantly dealt with the demon outside the grounds - as if it really matters where these fantasies are based.

But this does seems to contradict where the entity was actually "killed" but then we are hardly talking about reliable witnesses-
Hence when the VRS president discovered an undead in a mausoleum at a cemetery in 1970, having gained permission from the owners to enter and offer a spoken exorcism, he desisted from employing the traditional stake

As someone mentioned a while back , it's likely all tied up with reputations, legal stuff, eg avoiding involving Police interest etc and trial statements - reliable or not - at the time that he is anxious not to allow anyone to contradict - unless it suits him of course.

Here is a link to an on-going parrallel investigation---have been told not to post it, its msn called did a wampyr walk in highgate, so you'll have to find it yourself or send me a pm

There is a B side to the Highgate Vampire with an equally silly story about Robin Hoods Grave, but you are all doing very well.

We have all asked those kind of questions before, but you never get any answers, only diverted off onto another track, well maybe thats enough from me..I am worried about breaking a rule now

I certainly welcome your comments and additions to the discussion. While I can't speak for the mods, I believe as long as you post your supporting links and stay factual you are fine. The big rub I think was the back and forth bickering.

But all that aside, I saw posts earlier in this enormous thread about the same inconsistency on the bish's credentials I came up with. Could yuo please repost any information you ahve on the Old Catholic Church and/or Manchester's relationship to it, and his supposed ordination by a British Columbia, CA Catholic Church clergy member?
 
Well Spotted Vampire

For the Vampire,

I was waiting for somebody to spot that, Vampire. Now have a look at the eyebrows!

Yes. There is also an important story behind that . . .

For now,

David

Thanks. I suspect that we'll be hearing the pitter-patter of tiny socks soon.

I should also set the record straight, I typed my post before I knew Manchester Myth-buster had been banned. I am not Manchester, Nor Farrant, i am however a Vampire Duck, but from Dunbarton, not Glasgow. I am also a witch, but i took the precaution of setting myself on fire, so you can't burn me!

I tell you what though, it's hell trying to strike a match by holding it in your beak. I hope you appreciate the lengths I go to for you people.

Hi there, Fowlsound,
I did post some information about the Old Catholic Church and their comments about the situation especially about the Ad Clerum but these were removed because of rules and regulations and I got a warning. I have, however, posted what Fr. Simon said on Barbara's Bossy Bishops and Naughty Nuns board. I believe that you have the link and it is elsewhere on the forum. Hope that this helps a little.

Kind regards and best wishes

Also with regards to Illydt Thomas, I think that you might have got the wrong man there. I can't obviously disclose his private address on here has he is quite old and frail and naturally doesn't want to be disturbed and I will respect his wishes. So I can't help out there. Sorry I should have posted this in my previous message but I have only just realized what you had typed.

I got that name directly off Manchester's site. I'll quote for you:

When Bishop Seán Manchester was consecrated by Old Catholic Archbishop Illtyd Thomas, assisted by Bishop Michael Weston and Bishop Henry Vermeulen on 4 October 1991 at a Church in Hertfordshire, he inherited multifarious lines of apostolic succession for which the above table is but one single strand in the Old Catholic table alone. He also inherited the Chaldean Catholic line, the Armenian Catholic line, the Russian Orthodox line, the Syrian Orthodox line, the Assyrian line, the Greek-Melkite line, the Syro-Gallican line, the Anglican and Non-Juring lines, etc.

Here's the page:

http://www.holygrail-church.fsnet.co.uk/Apostolic Succession (Old Catholic).htm

So it's possible the guy in BC I found isn't the correct one, but the name itself is directly from Manchester.
 
well this is probably on the wrong bit to explain the ins and outs of manchesters bishopric, but if you want it explaining I'll be happy to do so, and where illtyd thomas fits in. note also Holy Grail is King Arthur stuff, not religious.

Tell Tale

For The Vampire and Fowlsound,

Well, I'll tell a little. But you'll just have to read between the lines. Why? Not because the account is untrue, but because maybe everything should come out in its proper sequence, and maybe too much material has been released here in one short day already.

Okay. Then I'll put this in the form of a hypothetical story - for the moment.

Lets just say - as part of our 'hypothetical story', in late 1968 (the 'swinging sixtities' we should remember) a small group of people (say two or three actually) came up with the idea of making a vampire home-movie in Highgate Cemetery. Now, the location was perfect - or the setting was.
The Cemetery was in a shocking state of disrepair (no Friends of HC in those days); just the place to film a 'vampire' that had its home in one of the vandalised Victorian vaults in the Cemetery.

Now there just seemed to be one major problem; being such a small trio - with two people really needed to operate the 8mm movie camera and take the necessary 'stills') who was left to play the actual 'vampire'? Well, obviously the person who thought up the idea was probably best suited, as he was then left to concentrate on make-up and disguise - which was obviously necessary if he was to concentrate on playing the local vampire.

Rumour had it that this 'movie' took about two months to make, and the finished result was a rather amateurish home made movie without sound, although it was in colour. (The sound effects were added later but the 'talk-overs' and 'vampire music' were frankly a complete diaster!).

An attractive blonde girl featured in this film; but her main role was to have been 'bitten' by the aspiring actor playing the vampire and then to 'get staked' by another actor in disguise who looked remarkably similiar to the one playing the vampire. (In fact, red ink ran sparingly over her exposed clevage while she clutched a make-shift wooden stake that was supposed to have impaled her).

But in the end, this 'vampire' himself got staked whilst lying in his coffin; 'staked' by 'himself', in fact, who was 'doubling up' to play the 'vampire hunter'.

(Well they were working on a very low budget, so I suppose you cannot blame them!).

Now, lets just say that colour stills taken from this film were later released some years later. It is rumoured that a set of these found themselves published in a French magazine in 1998, and were used as 'evidence' to prove the destruction of the Highgate vampire.

Of course, all this is hypothetical. I am just interpreting events as these transpired after I saw this particular home-made movie. That bit (that I and others were invited to watch this home-made movie) is fact. But the question that remains is just who was it that actually played the Highgate 'vampire'?

The mind truly boggles. Or would do if you only knew!

I guess the moral of this fictional story is, that even in the days of 'waning Flower Power', there were people determined to turn the genuine Highgate phenomenon, into a 'blood-sucking vampire'.

I found a picture of the supposed leader of a Nazi group in the UK. This someone is called "The Commander" and was part of the multi-part news story previously discussed on this thread.

The Commander:

It has been alleged that "The Commander" is actually Sean Manchester dressed in costume.


This is a picture of Sean in a puffy shirt:

They look very similar...don't you think?

I have been contacted by someone claiming to be Manchester and claiming to hold copyright to these images. I have provisionally accepted his claim and deleted the second image, however the first image appears to be of a newspaper clipping so he cannot hold copyright to that, whether he holds the copyright to the image contained within the newspaper clipping is another matter however given how it is used here I am leaving it in place as "fair use".

I'm lost, what relevance does this have regarding the claims of there being a vampire in Highgate?

No relevance to the specific claim of there being a vampire in Highgate, but earlier in this thread Myth indicated that there were no pictures of Manchester in a Nazi costume. This may be incorrect.
 
Great story David, thanks for that. Do you know if such a video might have found its way into the digital realm?
 
What newspaper is the clipping from? Date? It looks as if the article refers to the bishop. What's the gist of the article?
