07 Aug 2023
Season 2, Episode 4: In this episode, Morgan and Mike learn about Leap Castle in Ireland, built between the 13th and late 15th centuries. It is infamous for its dark history. The O'Carroll clan, known for poisoning guests, witnessed a brother killing another, a priest, in the room now called "The Bloody Chapel." Legend claims the priest's spirit haunts it. Moreover, during 20th-century renovations, a hidden dungeon filled with numerous human remains was discovered. This dungeon had a particularly terrifying feature called an oubliette. Victims were dropped through a trap door and were then impaled on wooden spikes, suffering agonizing deaths while the malevolent clan listened above.
