CHATEAU DE BRISSAC: HAUNTED HOUSE OF THE WEEK

Chateau de Brissac (Brissac Castle) in Loire Valley, France is said to be highly-haunted due to a grisly double murder. It's said that the castle's original owner, Jacques de Breze found his wife Charlotte and her lover one evening together in the castle and stabbed them both to death.


Legend says the two have haunted the castle ever since. Jacques is said to have sold the castle soon after their deaths, as he was so scared of their ghosts, he could no longer live there alone.

Charlotte, or "The Green Lady" as she is called (I can't find out why?), is said to wander the halls in search of something. Rebuilt in the 17th century, the castle has over 200 rooms and is now open to the public.
