We were up there in 2018 we didn't go in the castle it's beautiful and historic the area definitely feels spooky
When's the next vid??? You've gone quiet mate
The burgh in Bamburgh Castle is pronounced as burra ,it's Bamburra Castle ! Know it well & it's absolutely stunning set in a magnificent surroundings !
Thank you for the comments The Seeker - I suppose the pronunciation of the word "Bamburgh" is dependent on where you are from, Londoner's pronounce London "Landon" where I pronounce it "Lundun" - but I understand your point, have a great evening - best wishes Darren.
@@RealScary No, Darren. As @TheSeeker4642 said, Bamburra is the correct pronunciation of the name and has nothing to do with where you are from. You missed off an entire syllable. You have a north east accent so how come you made such a basic error? Bamburgh is a beautiful place and everyone should go if they get the chance but they would look stupid if they followed your lead and referred to the place as Bamber. Own the mistake don’t perpetuate it.
Thanks for replying Darren, I apologise for getting your accent wrong, when you're a Smoggie, must be slipping now I'm 70.
I've got relatives scattered about all over Northumberland & knew a lot of them well, when younger, they used to laugh at my accent & me at theirs. I'm still in touch with some, but not many.
Accents seem to be changing over the years, dialects are dying out with the advent of TV, radio & incomers. We all had strong local dialects at one time. Even my young relatives don't use the local dialect my generation did.
I'm a Scottish Borderer, one of the infamous Border Reiver Clans or Steel Bonnets as they were known.
I've had many paranormal experiences & even lived with a resident ghost in an old remote cottage. He was as solid as you or me when you saw him, but walked through doors, that at one time weren't there. He smoked a clay pipe, wore clogs, had twine tied round his trouser ankles, collarless shirt & his waistcoat seemed to be optional. We all saw him in his work clothes, but only our daughter saw him dressed up as if for church or a local gathering. Even a sceptical teenage brother who was visiting, hunted high & low for the man he'd just seen walk into one of the outhouses. He didn't bother us & we didn't bother him. Some places have an otherworldly aura about them & that was one of them.
My mother & me were attuned to the world of spirits, somehow that made the paranormal, normal for us. My late dad used to tell great ghost stories & frighten his younger cousins half to death when he came home on leave from the R.N. during WWII they told me.He was a double whammy of superstitious Scot & superstitious sailor.
So I enjoy your channel very much indeed & thank you for such great content.
You are more than welcome The Seeker - you make some very interesting points, I hope you continue to enjoy - have a great evening - best wishes Darren.
A lovely and touching upload.
Love your stories, I recommend you do one on Chillingham castle, very spooky place. 👻👻👻👻
Thank you for the kind comments Joanne - and for the recommendation, have a wonderful evening - best wishes Darren.
Another great and informative video thanks Darren 👍👏looking forward to the next one
Thank you for the comments Lynn - have a great evening/night - best wishes Darren.
Fascinating! Thank you…
You are most welcome :)
love these videos. my only complaint is that they aren’t longer, because i want more of them! :)
Thank you Drawsblank - I hope you continue to enjoy, best wishes Darren.
I've been to Bamburgh, and it is a beautiful place - its been used more than once for a film set. About a century ago Sior Harry Lauder made a film of John Buchan's novel, 'Huntingtower' there, which sadly is now lost. It was also the place where one gentleman started a lifesaving company before the RNLI existed, and Grace Darling is buried in the churchyard. Well worth visiting.
I agree entirely John - Bamburgh is a wonderful place, I always have a lovely time when I visit, thank you for the comment and have a nice evening, best wishes Darren.
I am a local & took our kids several years ago. I took a photo and in the back ground is a girl with plats! I didnt notice it until a couple of days later when i checked the pictures.
Oh I've been up there, on a coastal walk from Alnwick to Bamburgh. Enjoyed learning the history as well as hearing the ghost stories. My favourite one was the disembodied spectral hand😬 Many thanks once again😊
Thank you Puff The Magic Dragon - I hope you continue to enjoy 🙂
Thank you. I love listening to your voice , it's so calming and relaxing. You have a lovely talent for reading 📚
Thank you for the kind comments Jacky, you are too kind - best wishes Darren. 🙂
Just discovered this gem of a channel. Just subscribed too.
Thank you for the kind comments korbendallas71 - I hope you continue to enjoy, have a wonderful Day/Evening/Night - best wishes Darren.
My grandmother was born there, Scary Stories, it’s pronounced the same as Edinburgh, or I wouldn't have commented ! I too pronounce London as Lundun. Love your stories, you sound like you're from the Sunderland area !
Thank you for the comments The Seeker - they are appreciated, although I could fall out with you suggesting I was from Sunderland ( lol ) I am originally from Teesside - have a great day, best wishes Darren.
Never heard of these before
Thank you for the comment spiritoftheforest6204 - and I hope you enjoyed the video, best wishes Darren.
Bamburgh Castle seems to have more than it's share of paranormal events. If I ever visit the place, I'll make sure to leave before nightfall. Listening to the stories is fun, but being there when it happens might be unpleasant.
Thank you for the comment Erica - they are very much appreciated - and I agree wholeheartedly - have a wonderful day/evening/night - best wishes Darren.
Hi and thanks for another interesting video, this castle is on my bucket list as is the rest of Northumberland.
May I make one suggestion? The written and verbal narrations are not synchronous and when you are listening to you speak its hard not to also read the written which is distracting and it undoes your good work. Would it be possible to synchronise them? Thanks again.
Hi Tango69f - and thank you for the comments, am I correct in that the Subtitles are not synchronised with the video? also you can turn the subtitles off on any video if they are not required to my understanding - however I will look in to both issues, and thank you for bringing it to my attention. have a wonderful day - Darren.
I'm curious is there a source or reference for the 'hand cutting off' witches? Thanks
Thank you for the comment Brandyjean - in response to your question, this specific reference was taken from an old newspaper article, best wishes - Darren.
Love your stories. However, if a place is haunted, it's haunted all the time not just during the night. Not matter what time you visit, you may witness paranormal activity. But I know, I know. Nighttime makes it all the more creepy. Some what you described sounds more like residual energies being replayed over and over and not an active haunting.
Thank you gusmonster59 - you make some very interesting points - stay safe, best wishes Darren.
Sounds like that area has known paranormal events since it was inhabited.
I quite agree Colonel Picnic - and thank you for the comments, best wishes Darren.
Hi there....I loved your stories but what I like best is your beautifull Scottish accent... Am I. Mistakened ? There goes my like and a kiss 4 u.
Thank you for your kind comments Georgina - however I am English not Scottish lol - North East England to be precise, have yourself a wonderful day/evening/night - I hope you continue to enjoy, best wishes Darren.
The music is way too loud and I can't hear the words.
Sorry you could not hear the words Maria - all future uploads will have very minimal background noise due to popular request, have yourself a wonderful evening - best wishes Darren
Reminds me partly of Romeo and Juliet.
Thank you for the comments Johanna - And we all love a bit of Romeo & Juliet - best wishes Darren. 🙂
@@RealScary You're welcome!
Wonder who the ww1 soldier is.
I don't think I ever uncovered this ladymeghenderson9337 - thank you for the comment nevertheless, have a wonderful day, regards Darren.
@@RealScary you also, although, I might have a mooch, I'll let you know if I turn anything up
No Utred son of Utred?
I will leave this to your imagination Earthchat - best wishes Darren.
Thanks for sharing another chilling story, Darren..💖
Thank you Damarys - and you are most welcome, best wishes Darren.
