Midnight Manor
MIDNIGHT MANOR VICTORIAN HAUNTED MANSION. THERE IS MORE TO MIDNIGHT MANOR THAN MEETS THE EYE... From the outside, this place looks like an average manor house from the early 20th Century. Truth be told, the history of Midnight Manor will leave one’s skin crawling. The story about to unfold is an actual account of the monstrous acts that occurred in this home. In 1900, Midnight Manor, in Mansfield, Texas was owned by the Morbid family. Dr. Morbid’s wife, Mary, and 2 children, Emily and Alex were all dying from an unknown sickness. In response, Dr. Morbid started performing experiments on his patients and manor staff to find a cure for this sickness and one by one, they began disappearing. Dr. Morbid was hiding the dead bodies throughout his home both inside and out. The manor sat vacant for over 75 years, when the Texas State Historical Society deemed it a state historical landmark. Midnight Manor was opened to the public in 2007. Within the first month, numerous encounters with spirits were reported and the National Ghost Hunters Association was called in to investigate. The N.G.H.A. recorded at least 15 spiritual encounters in the manor. Spirits and ghosts are everywhere and no bodies have ever been discovered. Midnight Manor has now been re-opened for public tours. If you dare, come to Mansfield, Texas and journey through the halls and secret passageways of Midnight Manor and experience a real haunted house.

Count Orlock's Castle of Torture
At the age of 7, Count Orlock lost his parents and he was left all alone to wonder the mountains trying to survive. After 3 years in the wilderness, Orlock came across a church. Orlock entered the church looking for help and comfort; however, this place was run by an evil count who was teaching the ideals of Gorbedath of Beldane, the first known nosferatu. For the next few years, Orlock studied under the watchful eye of the evil count, then at the age of 15, Count Orlock was transformed into a vampire. Count Orlock felt betrayed by this transformation and slaughtered his teacher and all the followers of Gorbedath. Orlock then turned the church into place of unspeakable torture. For 300 years, torture and death hovered over the church like the plague, then one day all the evil stopped and Count Orlock disappeared. Over the years, the local villagers slowly destroyed the church until only a few things were left. A small group of people went to Europe, gathered up the remains and artifacts within the church and brought them to Texas. These artifacts were placed in a small house in Mansfield, Texas and since the arrival of Count Orlock's artifacts, strange things have been occuring. Some people who visited the house have been missing since late 2008, and there have been reports of Count Orlock in the area, could he still be seeking revenge? The house has been opened to the public for exploration into the mysteries of Count Orlock and his evil ways, will you be the next to visit Count Orlock's Castle fo Torture?
