The Hellfire Caves is an elaborate system of corridors and rooms carved into the chalky hillside in West Wycombe. Its purpose was to facilitate meetings for the infamous Hellfire Club. The caves were the brainchild of Sir Francis Dashwood and were completed and used by the end of 1752. Beforehand it was a natural cave system but was then extended to include secret tunnels and vast chambers.
The Hellfire Club regularly used the caves for their satanic rituals, experiments with the occult, and their forays into black magic. The caves were a scene of drunkenness and debauchery and this inner sanctum for the club was a way of life that meant absolutely everything to its members. The caves have remained almost completely as they were hundreds of years ago, with tunnels leading down 300 feet which stretches to the River Styx, then the Inner Temple beyond that.
