Letters are coming in now. Look at bottom!

On April 21, 2001, an event at Byberry had been planned by one of our loyal readers, a gentleman named Russ. For anyone who attempted to go, you may have noticed no one was there. So, what happened?

"Hey Spooky, its Russ... I know its probably too late, but if you are going to the big meeting tonight DO NOT GO!!!! While I was getting ready to head off to Byberry for the big meeting at 10:00 I checked my email. I had this sent to me by [e-mail address with-held]:

"HAHAHA, HOPE YOUR NIGHT IN JAIL IS FUN, FAGGITS. WORD GOT AROUND QUICK ABOUT THIS LITTLE MEETING AND IM SORRY TO SAY ITS NOT GONNA HAPPEN. ME AND MY BOYZ OWN THAT PLACE. U GOT NO BIZZ BEING IN THEIR. THE POLICE HAVE BEEN INFORMED ON YOUR MEETING IN THE THEATRE AND NOW THEY KNOW YOUR WHEREABOUTS AND THEY WILL BE HEADING UP THEIR AT 9:30. HAHAHAHAHAHA"

Of course I figured it was just a false threat to ruin our fun, but I took a swing down Carter Road and sure enough, I saw two cop cars parked on the curb behind a parked car. I drove back to Southampton Road and saw another cop parked outside "Old Byberry" with a spotlight. I wanted to check by the guardshack to see what was going on there, but it was too dark and too risky to drive my car on the property. I know there were about 40 people who said they were going to show up, so I want to find out some info on what went down inside. Anyone who attended my gathering or attempted to go in, EMAIL ME HERE and let me know what happened. I want to know if anyone got caught tonight. I am sorry I didn't get this email in time, but I think that was [name with-held]'s intention to send it to me at the last minute. This is the last time I try to set up something fun. And for anyone who wonders, NO this wasn't a trick of Lerch's. He may be bad news, but Lerch would never pull a stupid bullshit stunt like this!

Russ"

It seems everyone's fun was busted up by one person. I'd love to know how this person got the info, probably from this site, and this is unfortunate because I feel like it was partially my fault it was busted up. And for that, I apologize. However, like I have said before, there are those who build and those who tear down. And, like I have also said before, you do these trips at your own risk.

I also apologize for not warning everyone sooner. As it is stated, Russ was not informed until the last minute, and that sort of made it hard for him to pass the info on to me. I did not even attempt to go to this event, I totally forgot about it to be honest with you all.

If you went to Byberry for the event on April 21st, 2001, please contact me here and let me know what happened to you. Russ would also like to know. Thank you! And sorry again!

P.S. I would like to post some of the stories of what happened, however, I am aware some people were given court dates. I need you to state with your story that I have your permission to re-print your story! It won't be printed without your consent, and will not be posted until I get the go-ahead from you.

Some people, as time goes by, will be sending me their stories of what happened to them at this event (as soon as court dates and what not are dealt with). Those letters will be put here.

I know it's a little late, but I just saw what happened on the site. I was there that night with one of my friends. I'd like to know who wrecked this party. Anyone who thinks they own Byberry -- and I hope to "god" that whoever that is reads this -- has a war with me. Now, the story...

It goes like this:

A friend and I planned on fucking up this faggot-ass party because that's what we do. We are Heresy. You may know us, you may not. Either way, it doesn't matter because you will eventually. So anyway, we go there early, it was about 8pm. We took a stroll into the auditorium to find it completely empty. I decided to show my friend around the cells, breaking windows and the like. We headed down the street to woods-entrance, passing some motorcycle cops, and noticed some undercover ones sitting in a car by the entrance. This wasn't going to stop us, of course. We walked around the woods and avoided the car, and began to walk onto the path when we heard an engine start up. We peeked through the trees to see some kind of dirtbike, along with more cops. They saw us, so we cleared a path through the weeds and crossed a fallen log across the creek. A perfect escape from Byberry anytime, if you know the way.

I just realized that this letter seemed to be cut off. I will contact the author.
