Kellies Castle in Perak

The 100-years-old castle

 



There have been many myths or legends or rumors spreading around about the mysterious castle.
Some say that the Smith's spirit still wandering inside the castle, especially along the corridors, guarding his great mansion. And that's why much of the structure still intact after so many years.
Some say there are lots of "spirits" wandering around the castle since workers died during the construction and people died during the 2nd world war.
  
Tragedies struck after the construction of the Kellas House began. A virulent strain of the Spanish flu spread from Europe to soon after World War I ended in Europe, killing many of the workers in the Kellas Estate. Another seventy workers constructing Smith's dream castle also became victims of the flu. Smith, who had already spent a fortune on his house, lost a lot of money because of this.

The corridors 2nd floor


 

William's spirit has been seen pacing at night in the 2nd floor corridor. Helen wearing a white blouse and curly hair haunts her old bedroom. Phantom smells of incense and spirits have been reported in the horse stables. 
Reports of strange screaming at nights, doors closing on their own and sightings of a little girl that was reported to have died there.

His wife sold the castle and estate to return to Scotland. The castle faded in memory and became local tourist attraction. This castle was also believed to be haunted and was famously known as a movie set for the movie Anna and the King.

The path to the secret room where Mr. Kellie plans to make it the hiding place of his children and wife in case of any disaster, from the secret room we will be able to see anyone who crossed the river and also looking towards the temple.
