Hey the next fallout game could you give us back a real pause button and a game that doesnt destroy the pc using it and maybe start out with npcs and a real canonicle story line . if you could just not fuck over your fan base that be great . Lol
Sean was the nicest guy when my wife and I visited in 2016 - played the flute for our group and let us walk around. When we asked him about the hauntings he simply said that there's something there, but it doesn't bother him :-) would highly recommend checking it out
You guys should do an episode on Loftus hall in Wexford, Ireland. My Great Granduncle performed an Exorcism there as it was supposedly the site of where the devil appeared at a card game. I grew up about 5 miles from it. It has some fascinating stories.
@@angelakinghignojoz5374Loftus Hall seems like a very nasty place. And something there does not like women. I don’t mind haunted places but the really nasty places I avoid.
Goose bumps appeared on my arms as I settled down on my bed for this installment ! I'm now doubled over in paroxisms of laughter. Thought it was a sponsor for landscape gardening until the penny dropped.
Must agree, it is off-putting. I am glad someone is helping to finance BTS, but why does it have to be these insufferable hipsters insisting that body hair needs preening like a show animal? It would have been funny if it were not more the hundredth time these creeps have shown up on my favorite TH-cam channels in the last few months.
Andrew Jenkins - It was Ireland. Lots of corned beef, lamb, stew, cabbage, and potatoes. I loved Ireland (I could move there...), but I’m not crazy about the food. I don’t remember the specifics of the meal at the castle, other than it was in a hall of sorts.
Always happy to see a new video! Leap Castle has always fascinated me. I’ve actually studied the “elemental IT” as they call it there for decades. That place has to truly be one of the most haunted & filled with evil places in the world.
The Elemental sounds like its a coalescence of all the evil & horror that happened in the place that somehow manifests itself as a single entity, something akin to a lesser deamon.
That's definitely a theory, and a valid one, and personally I think it's likely, but it's a bit arrogant I think to state such things as a fact as if we know anything about these things for certain at all.
Leap Castle was one of my favorite stops in Ireland. Really impressive restoration work has been done by the owner, who is so incredibly kind and a very talented Irish whistle player. We very much enjoyed our private show. Hard to find, but worth the journey.
Oh my god that sponsorship transition at the beginning was hilarious! "Maintaining the gardens around your own castle," I thought it was gonna be about landscaping or yard care or something and then you said manscaped lmao
I am from Ireland. There are so many stories about ghosts, banshees, fairies, the headless coach, I remember going to an old gravyeard about four years ago and an old man basically told me about a fairy tree that cursed people who ever tried to cut it town.
I haven't even watched the episode yet and I gotta say I just YELLED at the top of my lungs lol. The Elemental of Leap Castle is one of my most favorite ghosts of all time. There was a show called "Castle Ghosts of Ireland" I saw as a child that really, REALLY left an impression on me. Thanks for covering this!
Story time: I first heard about Leap Castle from an episode of a show called Truth or Scare. It was a documentary series on Discovery Kids hosted by Michelle Trachtenberg that talked about ghost, creatures, and other fear related topics. It fascinated but never really scared me. Until the segment on Leap Castle in the episode "Castle Ghosts of Ireland." I have no idea how, but they managed to make something so terrifying to kid me, who could get through Jaws and Jurassic Park perfectly fine, that it took me and my sister three tries to get through it. The bumper for the final segment, showcasing their portrayal of the Elemental... oh my god, how was that in something for kids? Anyway, thanks for the trip down memory lane!
FlyingFocs was that the leather-faced thing with maggots for eyes??? Yeah that scared the SHIT out of my sister and me. I watch horror films and consume all kinds of ghost/cryptid stories and I don’t get scared easily and THAT was just terrifying. Nooooope.
@@Mayakran Best part? I don't even remember the other two segments. Far as I can remember, the creature looked like a dog with a human face and wig. And that was one of the few thibgs in my childhood that left me terrified.
one thing metioned about the pit that i find interesting was that on one of the skeletons was a gold pocket watch from the 1890s. The stories of Leap Castle are some of my favorite.
This is interesting because it suggest whoever owned the castle at the time the pit was discovered may have known about it or even used it. It's less than 40 years between it last being used and the fire that revealed it.
When I was little maybe 8 or 9 I remember watching a documentary about a very haunted place! They talked about a creepy creature that was very scary. I have never been able to remember much about it other than it scared the heck out of me! I’m pretty sure this is the same place they were talking about! I love your videos and thank you for helping me remember.
I spent a night in that castle with a ghost hunting group a few years ago.. very creepy to say the least, however the spirits didn't come out to play that night.
@@osakarose5612 .. As much as I wanted to experience something paranormal.. I have to say there was nothing.. we packed it in around 2am, drank some beer, and I went to sleep on a rickity old couch on the second floor, and left the next morning. that was in 2015

Lord: I will wind her up by leaving muddy footprints throughout the castle. Lady: I will get on his nerves by skilfully writing some creepy, best-selling novels.
Actually... it was the chapel. Yeah... bit of an interesting choice for a murder pit. Apparently part of the Chapel floor was a door, all you had to do was open the door and throw people into the hole. On the one and it feels like sacrilege, on the other it's a rather clever location choice. Also knowing the era it was probably built... people may have been given last rites before execution.
@@marhawkman303 I find the story to be very odd.. First of all they found a modern watch in it, so the original story might be a total fabrication. Was the pit or storage space, used by the Darby family to hide murder victims, based around the occult? The family was very rich and powerful and it's not uncommon to have human sacrifices and murders with elite, well connected occult obsessed families, like the Darby's. I think the pit was a hiding place for a big family secrets rather then some twisted late medieval tail. The bones where taken away, before a proper examination could take place. I'm willing to bet that they where children. It's possible that the Hole was used for this, but NOT likely considering the awful smell that it would cause the family living there. Also it was more then likely used to hide and store things as well as prisoners. But they had other buildings and properties to do this. They normally didn't show mercy to people who fell into there hands. So the story looks like a Darby fairy tale.
@@Silverfoxxee I was double checking what I heard on the video but I'm sure he said the Oubilette was discovered in 1922 or some time soon after that but when he talks about the Darby wife possibly spinning tales that was back in 1600s. I am very curious about it because if a watch from 1890 was discovered in there it suggests that it was last used less than 40 years before its discovery meaning the person who last threw someone in could still have been alive at the time of discovery. Shame it wasn't discovered in more modern times when it would have been thoroughly investigated and catalogued. Even in 1922 archeology was very slap dash with artefacts being just sold off or stolen and little care in preservation.
I love how each Sunday night, I get to end the week settling into bed with the latest Bedtime Stories’ story! For future videos, can I request the Order of Nine Angles, Dulce Base/underground lizard people, Sawney Bean and the Toronto Tunnel Monster?
I have just been watching a few asmr videos to get ready to go to sleep. And then I saw this new upload from bedtime stories and I couldn't be happier! -These videos are all I need to relax! 😁 Thankyou!
Two for one! Not only did I get frightened by the Elemental, I got to laugh for a good three minutes over the Manscaping advertisement! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
i want some Bedtime Stories episode on out of place artifacts, such as the Baghdad Battery, Antikythera Mechanism, Coso Artifact, Dropa Stones, Ica Stones, etc.
Funny thing about my family’s crest is that it claims we were Responsible for kidnapping St Patrick 🤣 yet on my fathers side the Surname is French yet both my parents are English and I ended up visiting Leap castle without even knowing the depth of the Paranormal activity that took place there just like it took me twenty years to learn of my Ancestors supposedly kidnapping a Saint 😂
Congrats my friend! Sponsors are taking notice and having you narrate their advertisements and that's gotta be good for your bottom line. Thanks for another great story. Keep up the good work!👍 👍
I took a trip to Ireland on vacation in July 2018, and specifically allotted some time to visit Leap Castle after hearing the stories. It’s definitely a spooky place and you can feel the energy. The guy that lives there Sean is super nice, and was able to give me more history of the area, share more stories, and give me and my wife a small tour. I’ll never forget standing in the Bloody Chapel, right where the brother killed his priest brother for starting mass without him. No sightings of the Elemental though. The pit was pretty cool to look down into, and very creepy. Thanks for telling the story guys!
The “elemental” sounds like one messed up individual. “Smells like rotting flesh? Grey skin? Patches of fur? Gaping holes where the eyes should be.?” Yikes. He should seek professional help.
I visited this castle in 2018, the owner is welcoming and friendly and I was lucky to the only one there and allowed to wonder the castle alone. It is eerily beautiful, the bloody chapel at the top allowed for amazing views.
One of the best stories yet, narration, music and artwork are awesome !! I love this story, the most haunted episode was pretty good as well, I will hopefully visit there one day ! Also I loved the trailer for “ Carry On Grooming “ most hilarious ! Do what you gotta do to keep on going, much love !!
So Leap castle has been terrifying for me ever since I was a kid when I saw Michelle Tratchtenberg talk about it on Truth or Scare. I saved this video to my watch later playlist because I wasn't sure if I wanted to watch it. I fell asleep watching another video on that playlist and woke up at 4 am with this video on and having some pretty freaky dreams.
They think it’s a pooka/pucca. Nasty, evil, demonic creatures. There are more than just skinwalkers out there... skinwalkers are also a Native American phenomenon, and this is Ireland.
Considering the horrific history of the O'Carrol clan and their horrendous crimes - and those of their successors - it is no wonder such an evil spirit as the "Elemental" haunts the castle. Its warped and putrefying figure seems to represent the murderous and treacherous inhabitants of the castle over the centuries. Great video, as always - and I would like to recommend the Bedtime Stories book available at Amazon Kindle, really worth the money !
Man I remember watching a small snippet on Leap Castle on discovery channel as a kid and it scared the ever loving shit out of me, specially the part about the Elemental.
The Real Phenom god was that the one that showed the thing’s face??? Omg my sister and I had to sleep in the same bed that night we were so freaked! Granted, we were also dealing with paranormal phenomena in our own house at the time so we were primed for being spooked.
@@Mayakran yes! The production decided to give it a pig snout and sunken eyes, and a very dirty looking face all around. I remember watching it once and having trouble sleeping for like a week.
Adrian hmmm, well there’s quite a bit to explain in a youtube comment, but I’ll share some things as they come to mind (DAMN this got long!!!). The house, while relatively new (built 1984), has always had a weird “vibe” to it-I grew up constantly feeling like I was exposed or being watched (kind of like when you’re sitting with your back to an open doorway). When I was little, my mom said I would cry and tell her about the “tall dark man in the hallway” who “doesn’t like her,” and I would chalk this up to childhood stress (there was a great deal of...domestic turbulence, shall we say, going on at the time) if my adult extended family hadn’t also told my mom they were uncomfortable in the house and had “seen things.” When I was older, I was sitting on the couch with my mother and I saw the outline of what I thought was my sister looking at me from the stairs. I stood up to yell at her for eavesdropping on a private conversation and then I realized it was NOT my sister. This thing was gray and brown and it had been leaning over on all fours staring at us. When I yelled at it, it sat back and disappeared. I was pretty shocked to say the least, and while my mother didn’t see anything, we both heard a huge crash/boom upstairs which upon investigation had no identifiable source. Two weeks later I was watching TV and I looked over and saw the thing again, about the size of a German Shepherd, it was that same indistinct brown and gray mass but standing on all fours this time. I stood up and shouted at it and it turned and ran back up the stairs. Yeah, nope. (Note: would have thought this was just all a hallucination if it weren’t for the fact that my cats were also visibly spooked by something). I haven’t seen this thing since (thank god), but in the mid 2000’s when my sister was going through a very bad time, my friends started being reluctant to come over because our house “was creepy.” One friend said a figure was standing in the window watching him as he came up to the house, but the problem is there was a desk pushed up against that window and no one could be standing there. It got REALLY bad when my sister (bipolar and suicidal), who had APPARENTLY been trying to talk to demons (.....why, girl?) “told the demons to go into the cats.” I thought she was full of it but then one cat suddenly died of heart failure and a couple days later we found the other lying in the backyard half eaten (probably by a coyote or sth). Obviously it could have been a coincidence but things were REALLY heavy in the house at this point (our pastor believed she was under demonic oppression) and I was so afraid at night I’d sometimes sleep in my car or at a friend’s house. Door knobs would rattle, things would go missing, and I’d wake up to see dark figures in my room. One night a couple years later I was walking to the bathroom in the dark and a black shape rushed across my path from the right. I told myself it was my cat, but I turned on the light and there was nothing there, and then my cat ran in from the right as though he had been chasing this... thing. So nope, not my cat and not my imagination. Cool! Sorry if this isn’t particularly scary or interesting-they’re not the “typical” haunted house stories, but I strongly believe that this is in large part due to my mother. I believe that the only reason things didn’t escalate into a full-blown “haunting” is because she, a devout Christian, would stand at the bottom of the stairs and ask for blessings and protection for the house and its inhabitants every night. I believe that it’s her faith that kept things as calm as they were. As kind of a side note, there’s been a lot of tragedy and premature deaths (suicides, murder, bizarre accidents, a lot of mental illness) in my family on my father’s side, and it’s a theory of my cousin’s (a very intelligent man in US military intelligence) that certain phenomena and entities can follow families, both feeding off of and encouraging negativity and destruction (for what it’s worth, a woman with the “gift of discernment” confirmed this when she said our problem is a generational one). It just seems unusually easy for members of our family to “make contact”-my cousin once contacted a demonic entity in a Ouija board which caused a whole crazy ride I won’t go into here. When I was messing with a “Charlie Charlie” APP (yes, as in on the phone, it’s ridiculous I know) my friend’s dog went absolutely apeshit and started barking and growling at the ceiling (very unusual behavior for him). I once did a little “goodbye ritual” for a deceased relative at a friend’s house and my friend’s mom was pissed because they started getting footsteps on the gravel and tapping on her windows at night (oops). Idk, I know the paranormal and supernatural are easily dismissed, and spooky “feelings” aren’t fact, but if things like this do exist and I’m not just imagining things, I believe that there are dark things following me and my family.
Excellent concise information about this family and their estate! Thank you for the captions, I read along with your narration almost in spite of myself.

What a segue. 10/10.
Imagine living in a house where u know the stinking remains of centuries of victims are rotting directly beneath ur dining table
Actually... it was the chapel. Yeah... bit of an interesting choice for a murder pit. Apparently part of the Chapel floor was a door, all you had to do was open the door and throw people into the hole. On the one and it feels like sacrilege, on the other it's a rather clever location choice. Also knowing the era it was probably built... people may have been given last rites before execution.
They lived in a hard, unforgiving time. Their lives were not so soft and easier like today
@@marhawkman303 I find the story to be very odd.. First of all they found a modern watch in it, so the original story might be a total fabrication. Was the pit or storage space, used by the Darby family to hide murder victims, based around the occult? The family was very rich and powerful and it's not uncommon to have human sacrifices and murders with elite, well connected occult obsessed families, like the Darby's. I think the pit was a hiding place for a big family secrets rather then some twisted late medieval tail. The bones where taken away, before a proper examination could take place. I'm willing to bet that they where children. It's possible that the Hole was used for this, but NOT likely considering the awful smell that it would cause the family living there. Also it was more then likely used to hide and store things as well as prisoners. But they had other buildings and properties to do this. They normally didn't show mercy to people who fell into there hands. So the story looks like a Darby fairy tale.
@@Silverfoxxee yeah, those are defintely questions worth asking. the sheer volume of corpses is a massive red flag.
@@Silverfoxxee I was double checking what I heard on the video but I'm sure he said the Oubilette was discovered in 1922 or some time soon after that but when he talks about the Darby wife possibly spinning tales that was back in 1600s. I am very curious about it because if a watch from 1890 was discovered in there it suggests that it was last used less than 40 years before its discovery meaning the person who last threw someone in could still have been alive at the time of discovery. Shame it wasn't discovered in more modern times when it would have been thoroughly investigated and catalogued. Even in 1922 archeology was very slap dash with artefacts being just sold off or stolen and little care in preservation.
A perfect upload once again, I'm so proud to see you guys increase in over 498k subs since i watched your journey, keep doing amazing work!
Danny Torrance would be fascinated by this place ... equivalent to the Overlook Hotel. Or Rose the Hat!
One of the most interesting episodes recently. Love when there's history to go along with the myths.
Just hovering over the video and you get greeted by "WE SAVE BALLS"
Really gets you in that horror mood.
I love how each Sunday night, I get to end the week settling into bed with the latest Bedtime Stories’ story!
For future videos, can I request the Order of Nine Angles, Dulce Base/underground lizard people, Sawney Bean and the Toronto Tunnel Monster?
Are there any anarchy related haunting? Paris Commune, Catalonia or anything related to anarchy? Would be interesting.
Can't even be mad, that was far too good of a segway to the sponsor
Ehhhhhh, not......really
When you upload a video, I leap for joy.
Reminds me of glamis castle in Angus Scotland
@@osakarose5612 whas like us eh
I've spent today binge watching Bedtime Stories. Now tonight a new one is released!
BEST. DAY. EVER!!
From abandoned halls to untrimmed balls, Bedtime Stories is here to keep it's audiences entertained.
I have just been watching a few asmr videos to get ready to go to sleep. And then I saw this new upload from bedtime stories and I couldn't be happier! -These videos are all I need to relax! 😁 Thankyou!
I was beginning to suffer content withdrawal. Thank you Bedtime Stories!!!
Two for one! Not only did I get frightened by the Elemental, I got to laugh for a good three minutes over the Manscaping advertisement! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This is perhaps the funniest sponsored segment I've ever heard. I do think it'd be funnier if it was played straight, without the goofy sound effects.
i want some Bedtime Stories episode on out of place artifacts, such as the Baghdad Battery, Antikythera Mechanism, Coso Artifact, Dropa Stones, Ica Stones, etc.
Funny thing about my family’s crest is that it claims we were Responsible for kidnapping St Patrick 🤣 yet on my fathers side the Surname is French yet both my parents are English and I ended up visiting Leap castle without even knowing the depth of the Paranormal activity that took place there just like it took me twenty years to learn of my Ancestors supposedly kidnapping a Saint 😂
This is definitely a top 5 for my favorites of this channel. Especially for being an unknown topic to me. Well done!!!
Congrats my friend! Sponsors are taking notice and having you narrate their advertisements and that's gotta be good for your bottom line. Thanks for another great story. Keep up the good work!👍 👍
I took a trip to Ireland on vacation in July 2018, and specifically allotted some time to visit Leap Castle after hearing the stories. It’s definitely a spooky place and you can feel the energy. The guy that lives there Sean is super nice, and was able to give me more history of the area, share more stories, and give me and my wife a small tour. I’ll never forget standing in the Bloody Chapel, right where the brother killed his priest brother for starting mass without him. No sightings of the Elemental though. The pit was pretty cool to look down into, and very creepy. Thanks for telling the story guys!
The “elemental” sounds like one messed up individual. “Smells like rotting flesh? Grey skin? Patches of fur? Gaping holes where the eyes should be.?” Yikes.
He should seek professional help.
How dare you assume that the Elemental uses those pronouns! XD
The introduction to the whole phenomenon of Leap Castle was just so perfect and well read. Thank you Bedtime Stories for such a great narration.
Thank you for this new episode, guys. Your vids are simply amazing.
this was one of my favorite haunted castle stories since I was younger. I used it as inspiration for a table top gaming adventure.
Safe to say I've never made the connection between ball shavers and horror videos... Until today... 😂😂😂
I visited this castle in 2018, the owner is welcoming and friendly and I was lucky to the only one there and allowed to wonder the castle alone. It is eerily beautiful, the bloody chapel at the top allowed for amazing views.
I believe the name of the castle has been mispronounced here, but to be honest I don't mind too much.
I always like hearing this story.
Perfect day to curl up and listen to this, it's a very grey day and heavily raining outside
Finally!!!! Can you even fathom just how often I checked for another video?!
One of the best stories yet, narration, music and artwork are awesome !!
I love this story, the most haunted episode was pretty good as well, I will hopefully visit there one day !
Also I loved the trailer for “ Carry On Grooming “ most hilarious !
Do what you gotta do to keep on going, much love !!
Hearing you talk about manscaping cracked me up. I'm so used to hearing you talk about serious and often dark subjects so wow. I loved it.
I love it when I get a notification from this channel!!
So Leap castle has been terrifying for me ever since I was a kid when I saw Michelle Tratchtenberg talk about it on Truth or Scare. I saved this video to my watch later playlist because I wasn't sure if I wanted to watch it. I fell asleep watching another video on that playlist and woke up at 4 am with this video on and having some pretty freaky dreams.
This “elemental” she is describing sounds exactly like a skinwalker??
Skinwalkers tend to be manifestations of evil deeds. Would not be shocked if the manifestation was born of the corpses in the pits.
They think it’s a pooka/pucca. Nasty, evil, demonic creatures. There are more than just skinwalkers out there... skinwalkers are also a Native American phenomenon, and this is Ireland.
True maybe the first owners of the castle wanted something to protect the grounds. Or it could be like a manifestation of negative energy.
I’ve heard this being is also referred to simply as “It.” Some think it was summoned through a seance that occurred at the castle as well.
Maybe she’s a sex fiend projecting her horniness onto the surroundings instead?
Considering the horrific history of the O'Carrol clan and their horrendous crimes - and those of their successors - it is no wonder such an evil spirit as the "Elemental" haunts the castle. Its warped and putrefying figure seems to represent the murderous and treacherous inhabitants of the castle over the centuries.
Great video, as always - and I would like to recommend the Bedtime Stories book available at Amazon Kindle, really worth the money !
Love the history behind the hauntings, very interesting vid Bedtime Stories :)
Three months later...
Bedtime Stories: "There Is Something In The Bush Underneath."
Mystery of down under
When I saw the notification I just had to leap on the opportunity to see another one of your videos.
Classic Bedtime Stories! Excellent research, cool intrigue. Bravo.
Man I remember watching a small snippet on Leap Castle on discovery channel as a kid and it scared the ever loving shit out of me, specially the part about the Elemental.
The Real Phenom god was that the one that showed the thing’s face??? Omg my sister and I had to sleep in the same bed that night we were so freaked! Granted, we were also dealing with paranormal phenomena in our own house at the time so we were primed for being spooked.
@@Mayakran yes! The production decided to give it a pig snout and sunken eyes, and a very dirty looking face all around. I remember watching it once and having trouble sleeping for like a week.
@@Mayakran would you please share some stories?
Adrian hmmm, well there’s quite a bit to explain in a youtube comment, but I’ll share some things as they come to mind (DAMN this got long!!!). The house, while relatively new (built 1984), has always had a weird “vibe” to it-I grew up constantly feeling like I was exposed or being watched (kind of like when you’re sitting with your back to an open doorway). When I was little, my mom said I would cry and tell her about the “tall dark man in the hallway” who “doesn’t like her,” and I would chalk this up to childhood stress (there was a great deal of...domestic turbulence, shall we say, going on at the time) if my adult extended family hadn’t also told my mom they were uncomfortable in the house and had “seen things.”
When I was older, I was sitting on the couch with my mother and I saw the outline of what I thought was my sister looking at me from the stairs. I stood up to yell at her for eavesdropping on a private conversation and then I realized it was NOT my sister. This thing was gray and brown and it had been leaning over on all fours staring at us. When I yelled at it, it sat back and disappeared. I was pretty shocked to say the least, and while my mother didn’t see anything, we both heard a huge crash/boom upstairs which upon investigation had no identifiable source.
Two weeks later I was watching TV and I looked over and saw the thing again, about the size of a German Shepherd, it was that same indistinct brown and gray mass but standing on all fours this time. I stood up and shouted at it and it turned and ran back up the stairs. Yeah, nope. (Note: would have thought this was just all a hallucination if it weren’t for the fact that my cats were also visibly spooked by something).
I haven’t seen this thing since (thank god), but in the mid 2000’s when my sister was going through a very bad time, my friends started being reluctant to come over because our house “was creepy.” One friend said a figure was standing in the window watching him as he came up to the house, but the problem is there was a desk pushed up against that window and no one could be standing there.
It got REALLY bad when my sister (bipolar and suicidal), who had APPARENTLY been trying to talk to demons (.....why, girl?) “told the demons to go into the cats.” I thought she was full of it but then one cat suddenly died of heart failure and a couple days later we found the other lying in the backyard half eaten (probably by a coyote or sth). Obviously it could have been a coincidence but things were REALLY heavy in the house at this point (our pastor believed she was under demonic oppression) and I was so afraid at night I’d sometimes sleep in my car or at a friend’s house. Door knobs would rattle, things would go missing, and I’d wake up to see dark figures in my room. One night a couple years later I was walking to the bathroom in the dark and a black shape rushed across my path from the right. I told myself it was my cat, but I turned on the light and there was nothing there, and then my cat ran in from the right as though he had been chasing this... thing. So nope, not my cat and not my imagination. Cool!
Sorry if this isn’t particularly scary or interesting-they’re not the “typical” haunted house stories, but I strongly believe that this is in large part due to my mother. I believe that the only reason things didn’t escalate into a full-blown “haunting” is because she, a devout Christian, would stand at the bottom of the stairs and ask for blessings and protection for the house and its inhabitants every night. I believe that it’s her faith that kept things as calm as they were.
As kind of a side note, there’s been a lot of tragedy and premature deaths (suicides, murder, bizarre accidents, a lot of mental illness) in my family on my father’s side, and it’s a theory of my cousin’s (a very intelligent man in US military intelligence) that certain phenomena and entities can follow families, both feeding off of and encouraging negativity and destruction (for what it’s worth, a woman with the “gift of discernment” confirmed this when she said our problem is a generational one). It just seems unusually easy for members of our family to “make contact”-my cousin once contacted a demonic entity in a Ouija board which caused a whole crazy ride I won’t go into here. When I was messing with a “Charlie Charlie” APP (yes, as in on the phone, it’s ridiculous I know) my friend’s dog went absolutely apeshit and started barking and growling at the ceiling (very unusual behavior for him). I once did a little “goodbye ritual” for a deceased relative at a friend’s house and my friend’s mom was pissed because they started getting footsteps on the gravel and tapping on her windows at night (oops). Idk, I know the paranormal and supernatural are easily dismissed, and spooky “feelings” aren’t fact, but if things like this do exist and I’m not just imagining things, I believe that there are dark things following me and my family.
Never heard of the castle until now, but i do find it very interesting
New bedtime stories....damn skippy, one of the beat channels on the tube
I love today’s video. It’s very chilling!
Excellent concise information about this family and their estate! Thank you for the captions, I read along with your narration almost in spite of myself.
The O'Carrolls sound like a perfectly normal Irish family to me. Heck, I wish *my* Irish-American clan were so stable!
Ditto
I have been wanting to visit Leap Castle since I first heard of it on a vacation in Ireland in 1996. On three visits I have never had the chance yet.
Guys seriously, the video is free, and you can skip the sponsor part easily. Good on them for making an extra buck or two, they deserve it for all the hard work.
I've been fascinated by this castle ever since i read about it a long time ago
Please make a video about Disappear of the Dennis Martin, Living pterosaur, and Mermaid sighting.
They've told the Dennis Martin story.
010101110101010001000110 I know but I want to see the official video about this incident.
By living pterosaur, do you mean the Ropen?
cadence navigator Also the pterosaur sighting in the USA and UK.
@@rokball4892 I think revisiting the Dennis Martin story in a new video about the Wildmen of the Appalachians would be awesome. I know of at least 3 Wildmen stories David Paulides has in his books and I'm sure there are many more.
I know I’m in for a good night’s story when I see a new story from this channel. Keep up the good work!!!
Leap Castle is just one in Ireland long history we needed to forget Loftus hall
Loftus Hall and Hellfire Club, we need to hear other things them those two, the stories told there I question tbh, I dunno about you what you think?
@@bradwhite5884 I am in all with boots on
Another Brilliant Bedtime story. Keep up the good work lads
