“Paranormal experiences at the castle include strange sounds, voices, cold spots and images,” said Tim Piland, who gives tours there – He has spent several nights at the castle, reports Sarah Bennett for News
”Many professionals have visited Pythian Castle over the years
and confirmed hauntings,” he said.
“The entities at the castle are more active when there are
people around,” Finocchiaro said. ”They react to the people,” she said. “I
think they’re bored when there’s no one around. There’s no one to play with.”
“There are multiple entities haunting the castle,”
Finocchiaro said, “such as children from its days as an orphanage and men from
its military days.”
“The ghosts are not malevolent,” she said, “but they are
protective of the castle and can be mischievous toward those who disrespect
their home.”
According to Bennett, “One of the castle’s well known ghosts is ‘Jeff,’ whom Finocchiaro said will respond to visitors who disturb him.”
