Pengersick Castle Videos

The photo to the left shows how Pengersick Castle 's tower looks today. If I was younger, healthier, and richer, I would definitely make a reservation to stay at the Castle. I can only imagine the connection I would feel when stepping into the same rooms of the Tower that my 13th Great Grandparents occupied during the Tutor period. Sir John Milliton, my 13th Great Grandfather, was born in the year of 1450. Sir John is the connection to the Loosemore Family.

Locals whisper about ghosts in the halls, mysterious cold spots, and strange noises late at night. One of the creepiest stories is about a lord who may have poisoned his wife, only to meet a grisly end himself. But for me, it’s even more personal. My 13th great...
