I have the pleasure of watching this Live Broadcast from Corvin Castle over 3 nights in England on Living TV Haunted Live. Net. I am fascinated with the whole myth and legend of Dracula and the romance and the violence, and the sheer passion that surrounds this character. CORVIN CASTLE was built on top of a 12th century old fortress in the 14th and 15th centuries, during the reign of King Ioannus Corvinus of Hunedoara (Iancu Corvin de Hunedoara) and his son, Mathias Corvinus (Mathias Rex), into a beautiful gothic style powerful and grand castle residence of the Corvin Royal family. The Corvin Castle is one of the most important Gothic Buildings in Central Europe, and the only Gothic Castle entirely preserved in Romania. It has survived many centuries of turmoil, having burned 3 times. The castle has large and sumptous rooms and halls with arms and artifacts, towers and bastions. Some of the oldest towers are the last, furthermost defence tower named "Ne boisa" (translation = Do not be afraid) and the Capistrano tower, named after the famous monk from the court. Can also be remembered the gate tower, the clubs tower, the white bastion, which was used for storage, the reception hall, the knights' hall, the family gothic chapel and Matthew's Loggia. Vlad Dracul (Vlad Tzepesh / the Impaler a.k.a. Dracula) also spent some time here imprisoned in the castle's dungeons. In the second courtyard of the castle, beside the chapel, is a well 30 meters deep, which according to the legend was dug out in the rockbed by 3 turkish prisoners which were promised their release if they found water. After 15 years, having finished the well, the promise was broken and the 3 prisoners were executed. Before their execution, they left an inscription in turkish on the wall of the chapel. It is said to say: "You have water but no soul", but the correct translation of the inscription is: "He who wrote this is Hassan, who lives as slave for the "ghiauri" (turkish term given to romanians) in the fortress near the church." http://oasis.fortunecity.com/bondi/158/hunedoara.html See photographs and if you have been there or have Photographs of Romania, link me. I would be interested to hear from Romanians because they live there and they can tell me more. Truth fiction and links, links, lots of links.
