Houska Castle – The Gates Of Hell


The Czech Republic's Houska castle is said to be one of the strangest places on the planet. Most castles have a some kind of valid purpose behind them that most people can agree on, but to some the reason behind this castle being built was rather odd. Supposedly the hole the castle was built around is said to be bottomless and a gateway to hell.

There were stories of creatures that were half man and half animal and other winged demon type creatures flying out in and out of the hole. So in order to stop these creatures and other evil things from coming out of the giant hole a castle was built around it. Houska was built in the late 13th and has remained the same way ever since.

There have been numerous creepy stories that have been told throughout the centuries about Houska. Som have said it was a gateway to hell but others aren't so sure and think that it could be some kind of warp or hole to another reality, whatever the case Houska is one creepy place!
