Denbigh Castle in North Wales has seen centuries of rebellion, brutal sieges, executions… and if local legend is to be believed, even a fire-breathing dragon?!

And with a history like Denbigh’s, it’s no surprise that people report tragic ghost sightings and eerie paranormal encounters.

But are its hauntings just part of the legend of Denbigh Castle, or is something still lingering within its walls?

It’s Part 2 of the story of Heol Fanog, one of the most haunted houses in Wales, where Bill Rich, his wife Liz, and their children are desperately seeking answers about what could be going on.
