To the left are the old and haunted walls of

  • Castle Poenari
  • Leap Castle
  • Castle Čachtice
  • Frankenstein Castle
  • Castle Fraser

Bonus point for knowing a second legend of this place.

1273

Leap Castle?

1274

Nope, it’s not Leap Castle, where the Lords threw people into oubliette with wooden spikes at the bottom. If the victims where lucky they died from the fall or impalement of the heart or head. If they were unlucky however…
Leap Castle was named after two rivaling brothers who jumped down the cliff where the castle later would be built. The survivor would become the new head of the clan.

No, it’s also not Castle Poenari, Home of Vlad the Impaler and namesake of Count Dracula, famous for impaling (duh) so many of his enemies, that it looked like a forest. It’s also said, that on another occasion, he had the turbans of three Turkish envoys nailed to their head, because they refused to take them off in his presence.
