I wandered into one of the turrets. It was pretty dark but nothing more. Then I wandered into another. I was only a few feet into it when a sudden really dreadful feeling overcame me, and I turned on my heel and practically ran out.

When I look at photos of the castle, I can bring that feeling right back up from my memories.

I've sensed a lot of things while wandering around through castles, those in ruins, and those not, but that was the strongest vibe, ever.
