S6 E20: The Most Haunted Castles in the World

October is here.

And that means one of our favorite annual traditions has officially returned:

The That Would Be Rad October Spooktacular.

To kick off spooky season, we’re exploring some of the most haunted castles in the world: places filled with centuries of war, betrayal, tragedy, curses, ghost sightings, underground passages, and dark history.

In this episode, we visit:

Dalhousie Castle in Scotland, where the Grey Lady is said to still wander the halls…

Predjama Castle, built directly into a cliff and tied to a legendary siege and betrayal…

Voergaard Castle in Denmark, home to stories of a ghostly noblewoman, a mysterious bloodstain, and a centuries-old curse…

The Castle of Good Hope in South Africa, where bells reportedly ring on their own and a phantom black dog stalks the grounds…

Charleville Castle in Ireland, with one of the saddest ghost stories on the list…

Kellie’s Castle in Malaysia, an unfinished mansion filled with secret tunnels, strange apparitions, and the lingering presence of a dream that was never completed…

And finally, Edinburgh Castle — towering over one of the most haunted cities in the world, with stories of phantom bagpipes, a headless drummer, ghostly prisoners, and centuries of violent history.

Along the way, we ask the questions that really matter:

Would you actually spend the night in one of these places?

What’s worse — seeing a ghost, hearing one, or knowing something is standing behind you?

And at what point does “historic charm” become a terrible vacation decision?

Some of these stories are tragic.

Some are creepy.

And some are exactly the kind of old-world haunted lore that makes October feel like October.

Turn the lights down.

Settle in.

Let's BE RAD and head into the fog...
