"I swear to you the castle is haunted," insists Danny Malone about Denmark's Engelsholm Castle. "We would hear shit and feel shit that wasn't normal while we were in the room. Things would be in different places when we woke up, and it wasn't because we blacked out drunk [laughs]. Windows would open. All these signs. We were talking about something and this crazy-looking bug would fly into the room. It was like this crazy green bee. It flew into the room while me and [producer Matthew Smith] were having this deep talk. Hovering in one spot, just bzzzzzzz. We held our breath until it flew out."
