Haunted Castles of Europe

By Miss Cellania in Architecture, Travel on Oct 16, 2008 at 8:15 am

Imagine staying in a castle built several hundred years ago. If these walls could talk! But some are rumored to do just that …or have ghosts of former residents walking the halls. This post details ten such locations. Pictured is Brissac Castle in France, which was suddenly sold by its owner, Jacques de Breze, after his wife Charlotte and her lover were killed there. Her ghost is said to have remained afterward. Link -Thanks, Lauren Axelrod!

I agree, to stay in an authentically haunted castle – who gets to do that very often, if ever?

It’s only authentic when I see blood oozing out of my walls.

I have always cherished the dream of visiting these places one day . I am from India, and as you know, this country is not financially very strong. It costs a lot to visit these places. But I will still work on it, so that atlease once in my lifetime , i can witness HISTORY with my own eyes. Till then, keep well… And smile…
