Craig Y Nos Castle
Some haunted hotels downplay any ghostly associations, but not formidable Craig Y Nos Castle (meaning Rock of the Night), built around 1841. For one, the hotel runs a sister site covering the most haunted castles. It also holds regular ghost tours and events, such as seances and overnight paranormal investigations. Two main historical periods contribute to the hauntings; the first stems from former owner and once-renowned opera singer Adelina Patti, who took up residence in 1878. During her time there she added a private opera house, large enough to seat 150, which now serves as a wedding venue. Ghost tours visit the opera house's basement, and Patti herself is a known entity among the ghostly residents. After her death the castle became a tuberculosis hospital, and the former Children’s Ward is said to be the most haunted room on the property. Paranormal reports encompass children’s laughter, the sound of bouncing balls and even sightings.
