The Grain and Grape

Europe is full of many dark and haunting tales, both true and fictional. From the story of Vlad Dracula, the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s character Count Dracula, to the many tales of castle hauntings. It may be all the Agatha Christie stories we’ve read, or all the dark, macabre statues and cemeteries that we’ve seen, that make us see mysteries wherever we go while traveling in spooky Europe.

Going on a Ghost Walking Tour in Prague and having pints in a haunted pub gives us a feeling of the history, horrors, and mysterious happenings all over Europe. Bats and skulls decorate both cemeteries and cathedrals. Some are whimsical, and some are dark and scary. Here are some of our favorite spooky photos so far from our travels.
