Alnwick Castle

Alnwick is a castle and country house in the town of the same name in the county of Northumberland in England. The castle was the residence of the dukes of Northumberland, was built after the Norman occupation, and has been restored and modified a number of times.

Legend has it that a man serving the lord of Alnwick Castle suspected his wife of adultery. Aiming to catch his wife red-handed, he climbed onto the roof and fell to the ground dead from a broken neck. Despite being buried, the man is still being discovered around town. As disease spread and livestock began to die, locals suspected it was the man's ghost. They dug up this man's body and found it covered with blood inside, then people burned the body and the illness ended unexpectedly.
