  • Even today, the superstition of living dead persists, and belief in the undead is also widespread in Europe. In some areas of Romania, belief in vampires is still alive. With cultural anthropologist Deborah Hyde and neuroscientist Jason Braithwaite, we are going on a ghost hunt in Muncaster Castle and look for scientific explanations for the haunted phenomena there.

    Aren’t we all very lucky to have such ‘experts’ as Dr Braithwaite to be able to explain away all the phenomena that people perceive as ghosts and so dispel our fears? Some will say ‘just because you believe it, doesn’t make it true’, however the flip side to that is ‘just because you don’t believe doesn’t mean mean it isn’t possible’.

    A wonderful& unique introduction of that matter about Ghost 👻 👽 stories, legends beneath England 🇬🇧 population exists , also in Germany 🇩🇪 & Serbia 🇷🇸 ..other places .shared by a magnificent ( Get.factual) channel, thanks for sharing... Maybe legend literatures, horrific past events prosecutions - tyrannical sides of those events & historical trails exist until nowadays there exists as old castle 🏰 old stone's buildings & strange Graves ...all these factors encouraged these kinds of beliefs inside someone mind's around the world ... maybe religions need its spiritual positioning, returning in nowadays century when the material world 🌎 completely dominance through reliving that believe for benefits of religions

    Nothing wrong with scary stories to make folks get chicken skin. Power of the mind to create ghosts from out of routine, sounds. Nothing more fun as a skeptic, then setting up believers by “making” things happen on tours. Grew up the oldest of 7. Learned early the power of suggestion and willingness of others, to validate/accept the events I created - as paranormal😂

    If he married into the Frost-Pennington family then he must have taken his wife's name? As it clearly states his surname as Frost-Pennington. Most unusual as in the Uk the woman adopts the man's surname upon marriage.Any explanation?

    • @ludovica8221
      @ludovica8221 Před 7 měsíci

      I expect his name is originally Frost as the family seated at Muncaster is usually referred to as the Pennington family. It is extremely common in gentry and aristocratic families where there is entailed property for a husband of an heiress to assume her family name or add her name to his own

And if King Sisyphus promoted navigation and commerce but was avaricious and deceitful because he killed guests and travelers in his palace, to end up cheating death as the one and only, if is it considered a rule to become a vampire or even a werewolf, the person has to first dye. And if so, are they guided through the death process by the people they eat?

      You only need to suggest something is haunted/paranormal & people will start to feel, see & experience things all of a sudden. Bcs ypu suggested it, people will look for it/expect it & after that our brain will explain all new things as something paranormal..
      Here it's in the name = people will go there expecting/hoping to experience something "paranormal" i bet 99% of them are believers already the rest will fall on the suggestion part..
      People who believe in ghosts, will think everything were it's isn't clear right away what happened & why, is paranormal.. logical explanations are completely ignored..
      You want it to be true..
