Проблемный вопрос

Что лежит в основе мифов и реальных историй о замках Великобритании связанных с призраками?

What are myth and real stories of UK castles about ghosts based on?

Гипотеза исследования

Stories about ghosts are widely spread all over the United Kingdom, and we consider it to be connected with the event that happened in castles.

Исследование

Paranormal investigators struggle to find evidence and to determine the mysteries behind hauntings. But that’s the problem– there’s a lot of evidence, a lot of hearsay, and no proof. It could all be within our heads. Whatever the case may be, there’s something peculiar going down in many of Britain’s castles and manors. We have studied history of several castles in the UK and this is what we have found out:

Muncaster Castle

Muncaster Castle, situated near Ravenglass in Cumbria, is believed to be haunted by at least four different ghosts.

The first is said to be Henry the VI, who was murdered in the Tower of London after Edward IV won a victory at the Battle of Tewkesbury. Henry’s spirit has been seen in the chamber he occupied before his death, perhaps the place he felt happy in the company of his loyal subjects.

Выводы

To sum up,due to history, many of the UK's castles have been witnesses to suffering, torture, executions and horrific deaths on an unparalleled scale. It is no surprise that these castles are some of the most haunted places in the world. Also ghosts, due to their popularity, are even protected by goverment.
