Known as New Zealand's only castle, Larnach Castle holds a tragic history that fuels its haunted reputation. Built by wealthy banker William Larnach in the late 19th century, his life was marred by family scandal and financial ruin, culminating in his suicide within the castle ballroom. Visitors report numerous ghostly encounters, including sightings of a figure believed to be Larnach himself, as well as his daughter Kate, who died young from typhoid and is often seen in the ballroom. Unexplained whispers, touches, and apparitions make this stunningly beautiful castle an eerie destination in the Southern Hemisphere.
