In honor of the spooky season, today I decided to examine the haunted castle, and on in particular: Chillingham Castle, the most haunted castle in England (so sayeth the current owners).  What do we know about Chillingham’s history as a border fortress between the warring nations of England and Scotland, and just how dark and bloody does that history get?  I’ll say it now – pretty damn dark and pretty damn bloody.  Who are the various ghosts people have claimed to see at Chillingham, whether it’s in a bedroom, the chapel, or out in the courtyard, and how dangerous might those ghosts be?  In what ways does Chillingham truly epitomize everything we love to be scared of in a haunted castle?  I will be answering these questions, mentioning a few notable haunted castle horror films of note, and have a sweet little bedtime story for you about a fancy married couple who have an old torture chamber in their basement, and not the sexy kind.  Why ponder the haunting of a medieval castle when I for one don’t believe in ghosts?  Because the legend and history of Chillingham, complete with a sadistic master torturer and a lake full of bones, is very Creeptastic!
