Searches for ‘Halloween activities’ are up by 100% on Pinterest, and whilst pumpkin carving is wholesome, why not experience something truly spine-chilling this Halloween?
The UK is full of places with a wealth of history and paranormal activity. Conwy Castle is a standout contender, considered one of the most haunted places in North Wales.
Spooky Castle Facts
- Built in 1289 by Edward I as part of his “Iron Ring” of castles, Conwy Castle is steeped in unexplained phenomena. Visitors have reported sightings of a ghostly monk, a shadowy figure, and a man in armour illuminated by candlelight.
- The castle’s chapel has also been known to fill with the scent of incense, even when none is present.
- Some believe these spirits are remnants of prisoners held here during Henry VIII’s reign.
For a truly spooky Halloween experience, North Wales is the perfect destination!
