Ghosts of Chillingham Castle - Paranormal Haunting Documentary Chillingham Castle has existed since the 13th century. In 1298, King Edward I stayed at the castle while on his way to the Battle of Falkirk where he defeated William Wallace. Nearly half a century later, Sir Thomas Grey was granted a license to fortify and crenellate the castle in 1344. By 1348, the castle was transformed into a square structure adorned with towers at its corners. Since that time, the castle has remained similar in appearance with the exception of its outer curtain walls linking the towers, which are presently much higher. Throughout the years, Chillingham Castle was involved in various border skirmishes between England and Scotland. Additionally, it was under siege in 1536 when the Percy family of nearby Alnwick Castle attacked with cannon fire during the "Pilgrimage of Grace" rebellion against Henry VIII. Today, Chillingham Castle is best known for its reputation as one of the most haunted castles in England.Ghosts of Chillingham Castle - Paranormal Haunting Documentary Chillingham Castle has existed since the 13th century.
