Halloween 2024 - Vampire Month: The Vampiric Castles of Transylvania

The culmination of Vampire Month sees us head into the heart of Transylvania, and we will delve deep into the life and death of Vlad III Dracula, a man who undoubtedly influenced Bram Stoker’s decision to place his Dracula here. We will then go in search of ghosts in three gothic castles with ties to not only Vlad, but Dracula himself. This Halloween night join me in asking just how haunted are the vampiric castles of Transylvania? Huge thanks to Yvonne and David from the Scottish Ghost Company for talking to me about their night in Bran Castle.
