The castle was founded in 1071, and has a reputation as one of the regions most haunted spots. Footsteps have been heard in the offices when the castle is empty. Recent investigations into paranormal events at the castle produced some interesting findings. A group of ghost hunters witnessed a figure pacing across the parapets. The ghost of an old woman has also been known to frequent the castle. As is the spirit of a civil war drummer who was shot from the battlements. The most terrifying of ghosts is the 'Grey Lady' who is seen drifting across the parapets of the old keep. Thought to be the spirit of Dorothy Beaumont, she died at the castle during the siege of 1646. She has appeared to both staff and visitors to the castle, and she has been seen in the window of the Chapel in the 1970's, and during the 1960's she also visited the old aquarium. The spectre of a elderly Medieval lady was also witnessed in 1983.

We have investigated the castle on numerous occasions and it never disappoints in terms of paranormal activity. The spirit of a Victorian child is said to have materialised at least twice

 in the Undercroft of the castle and the presence of the evil “black monk” is always felt.

Your evening will begin with a history walk around the castle where your guide will tell you a little about the history of the castle and the ghosts who haunt there.

You will then be given a short workshop in seeing and sensing spirit and have a chance to walk around the castle on your own – bring a torch!

After a short break we will begin the ghost tour – the mediums will take you around the area and tell you what they see and feel and help you to tune in too.

The night ends with the vigils – standing in the pitch black and asking for the spirits to show themselves!

The question is – ARE YOU BRAVE ENOUGH?
