Predjama Castle &
Bathory Ruins (Slovenia)
The team's the first ever to investigate the Predjama Castle, an ominous
Slovenian national monument. Once a refuge site for the Luegg family,
the castle is now home to a museum.
Employees lock up long before dusk to avoid encountering the spirit of
Robin Hood-like Erasmus, who is still trying to keep the castle stocked
with food and supplies. Nobody has spent the night at Predjama for over
20 years, but that won't stop the team from confronting the keeper of
this castle.
The team then travels to another castle with a far more gruesome
pedigree.
The Bathory Ruins at Cachtice Castle in Slovenia, are home to the final
resting place of prolific and infamous serial killer Elizabeth Bathory.
Known as the Bloody Countess, Bathory terrorized, tortured and killed
over 600 young women, using her royal connections to escape persecution.
Bathory passed away in the castle in 1614, but visitors, particularly
women, still feel her presence today.
