Looking for a Scare? Then Read These 15 Spine-chilling Stories The idea of a haunted castle isn't too foreign to most of us. After all, old castles undoubtedly saw many deaths, unjust executions, tortures, broken hearts, and violence in general. Even the most stunning and awe-inspiring castles can hide the darkest secrets, filled with spirits refusing to let those secrets die. From ghosts re-enacting their own executions to ever-present blood stains and playful phantom children, you will read chilling accounts of true hauntings in castles across the world. Ireland, New Zealand, Canada, Austria, the Czech Republic, and more are the homes of castles whose astounding history and unusual architecture are shadowed only by their reputation for paranormal phenomenon and restless ghosts. Consider the imposing Houska Castle, the site of secretive Nazi experiments in physics and the paranormal, which was built hundreds of years ago to keep evil inside rather than invaders out like most castles. The notorious Tower of London has its share of unruly spirits, including a massive bear that nearly scared a security guard to death. Those are just some of the frightening true stories within this book as you learn about the world's most haunted castles. You will discover a man dragged down a dungeon hallway still inhabited by the ghost of an evil torturer. You may laugh about how many ghostly photobombers enjoy showing up in tourists' pictures or gasp at the account of a headless drummer boy who suddenly disappears. Consider awakening in the middle of the night surrounded by a group of Druid-like monks. Think of how terrified you would be to encounter a suit of armor that let out a blood-curdling, pain-riddled scream. Ponder viewing security footage displaying a heavy door flinging wide open only seconds before a massive, hooded figure appears. If you find these types of stories fascinating and creepy, this is the book for you. Ready to scare yourself senseless? Scroll to the top of the page and hit buy!
