Haunted Hotels in Wales: Gwydir Castle

The Travel Channel put together a list of the top 10 haunted hotels in Wales. The Travel channel has put together the most haunted hotels in Wales. I also had the pleasure of visiting the UK and you can read about my encounters with the ghosts there in my book "Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation," available on Amazon.   Here's this week's haunting: 

Gwydir Castle 

 The 16th-century Gwydir Castle technically isn’t a hotel, but a family home that rents out two bedrooms as part of a tiny bed and breakfast operation between April and October. Naturally a castle this old comes with its share of inhabitants who never left, like an unknown young woman who’s most often spotted in the North Wing and the corridor between the Hall of Meredith and the Great Chamber. While this ghost generally doesn’t bother visitors, she is accompanied by the smell of something rotting. Former resident Sir John Wynn has also stuck around, and is perhaps connected to the young woman. According to his story, he seduced a maid, then murdered her and buried her in a castle wall after she became pregnant. He’s been spotted on the spiral staircase leading to the Great Chamber. Overnight guests should also be on the lookout for a phantom dog whose bones were found in the cellar.
