hey guys thanks for tuning into Amy's Crypt. I am currently in Prague in the
Czech Republic. I'm going to take you around to the most haunted places in
Prague. if you are a horror fan make sure to watch to the very end because I have
a really cool surprise for you but let's get going to our first spooky
location. alright guys we've just made it to our first destination known as the
Faust house which has connections to Satan himself.
all right guys I'm currently in the courtyard of the Faust house which is
really cool because I didn't think I would be able to get inside it will
access at this closely and just view it from the outside. I actually think it
functions as some kind of school campus or something today.
but this place does have some really creepy legends associated with it
the main at the story that is associated with the Faust house is actually related
to the devil himself. so the story begins with a very poor student who found
himself on the streets homeless desperately seeking shelter he
supposedly passed by the Faust house and noticed its front door ajar so he
entered the building which had been abandoned for quite some time. he thought
that it was quite strange inside because it had almost abandoned apothecary there
was a lot of lab equipment around and these strange bizarre mechanical
machines everywhere. he'd also heard some very strange legends about the place.
when he entered the house he found a really large hole in the ceiling and
this was kind of evidence to the story that he had heard about supposedly the
previous owner had been taken by the devil himself through a hole in the
ceiling to hell. this guy was so desperate for
shelter he decided to stay in the house anyway. he covered that hole up with a
big piece of carpet and just slept there. it's told when he awoke the next morning
he found a coin in a bowl he is that going to buy food but it was more than
enough to supply food for a whole day for him. the next day he found another
coin in the exact same spot. It was told this went on for some quite some time.
this supposedly led to him becoming quite greedy he is said to have
discovered a spell book in the house and used that to summon Satan asking and
demanding for more money to live an increasingly more lavish lifestyle.
this however backfired on him and he was taken through the same hole in the
ceiling to hell by Satan himself. because of these stories this house is a very
notorious place within Prague and supposedly one of its most haunted
places.
all right guys off to our next haunted location.
all right guys we're at our next spooky Prague location the Charles Bridge.
alright guys I'm currently on Prague's Charles bridge. now whilst this place
doesn't have any proper ghost stories it does have some very dark history and
legends associated with it. the first creepy piece of history about
the bridge concerns the towers at either end of it. during the early 1600s there
were several leaders who are beheaded and their seven heads were brought here
and displayed from these towers in suspended iron baskets and what's even
more creepy and gruesome about this is that they remained there for about a
decade. another story that associates this bridge with death occurred during the
14th century when a man was thrown from the bridge for refusing to divulge the
Queen's secrets to the king. his death has been commemorated on the bridge with
a plaque and supposedly touching that plaque brings good luck. I'm not sure where the
park is just yet. I'm gonna do my best to try and find it, but just in case I'm
just gonna touch all the plaques.
I don't think these are the right ones.
pretty sure we found it because there's hell people crowded around this one statue
going up and touching. this looks like
maybe is supposed pat the dog as well. You can tell how many people who touch it
because it's worn gold.
so we're making our way over to our next wanted spot and walking through Prague.
It is so beautiful. it's really pretty all of the streets are and even the
McDonald's looks nice.
Just on our way to our next haunted location which today is the Czech
Ministry of Foreign Affairs but it used to be the palace of a very noble wealthy
family who were also extremely vain.
so we're just getting our first glimpses of the palace just behind me here and I
thought this was a good place to tell its first ghost story which relates to
the man who had the palace built. it is said that he came to a verbal agreement
with all of the workers who built the palace that they would be paid after it was
finished for their work. partway through construction though he died and it is
said that someone who had connections with the occult and black magic was able to
bring his spirit back to sign the proper paperwork for construction to continue.
and many people believe that that was successful as the palaces construction
was able to be completed. Our next ghost story is one that involves evil spirits
and even demonic ones. it said that in a courtyard right across from the palace
there used to exist a pillar that was representative of a pagan princess and
now this pillar supposedly had a lot of demons and evil spirits that hung around
it. they would set it on fire, cause of ruckus and even projects smells of
sulfur around this particular pillar. the next part of this ghost story involves
the Duchess that used to live at this palace. she was very wealthy and lived an
excessively lavish lifestyle. she would bathe in wine and bathe in milk and eat
delicacies from all around the globe. this was not looked kindly upon
particularly in the late 1700s when a great famine in the area broke out. the
Duchess's response to the famine was to throw a very lavish ball.
she made shoes out of dough. this ball insulted many people but it also
insulted the demons that lived nearby. it is said that nine of them came up into
the palace and danced the Duchess into such a frenzy that her shoes set on fire.
after this it is said that she was dragged to hell.
some say she was dragged directly to hell through the ball room of the palace
while others say that she was dragged out to the column that I mentioned in
the courtyard earlier and dragged to hell from there. ever since many people
had cited the apparition of the Duchess in the palace behind me and she is one
of Prague's most famous ghosts.
I'm currently standing in the courtyard of the convent of st. Agnes in
Prague and this is one of its most haunted places, haunted by a murdered nun.
now her apparition sometimes appears to people completely bloody just soaked in
blood other times she's a little bit more happy and gives a little smile to
people. her story is quite a sad one and
involves a tragic love affair it is said that she fell in love with someone who
was of much lower class. he was a poor Knight and this really was angering to
her father so he decided he would have her shipped off to the convent here
where she was to become a nun. the end of her story comes on the final night
before she was shipped off where she went and met her lover but she was
confronted and then stabbed to death by her father. ever since she has been said
to haunt this very church though she is in no way a nasty ghost. there is another
story that tells her appearing to a young girl who was attempting to poison
herself because she ended up with a very bad love affair and it said that she
gave this young girl some coins and allowed her to live a happy prosperous
life. so I wouldn't mind running into this nun
myself.
guys I'm just walking down the prettiest Street on my way to our last haunted
destination but then remember I still have a treat for you horror fans coming
out really soon and something that I'm really excited to see and check out as
well. before I reveal the most haunted place
in Prague I wanted to give an honorable mention to a particularly creepy spot
just outside of the city.The Sedlec ossuary. whilst this church has no
noteworthy ghost stories it is a haunting place given it holds the
remains of 40 to 70,000 people their bones are decorated in ornate displays
featuring a chandelier containing at least one of each bone present in the
human body and a family coat of arms made solely of bones. I have a full video
on the Sedlec ossuary if you're interested in learning more about this
bone church. check the description for a link below but now on to the most
haunted place in Prague. all right guys I have just arrived at my number one pick
for the most haunted place in Prague and that is st. James Basilica. the reason
why this place is so haunted is that in the 1700s a count was buried here and he
was actually buried alive. his wails and screams of terror were then mistaken for
a ghost within the church which is a little bit funny because after he died
it is said that he actually became a ghost and still haunts the church. but
that is not even the creepiest thing about this place. just inside the
entrance is a 400 year old mummified arm hanging from a meat hook. the story
behind this arm is that a thief broke into the church and tried to steal
jewels from the Virgin Mary. It is said that the statues arm came to life
grabbed the theif's arm and would not let go. the only way he could be released for
his was for his arm to be amputated. after that his arm was displayed as a
deterrent to other would-be thieves and it remains today as a very creepy omen.
