Oy with the Terror Podcast

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃

In this week's episode, Sandra talks about the legendary Leap Castle located in Coolderry, County Offaly Ireland. Today Leap Castle is known as the most haunted castle in the world. The castle is believed to have been built sometime in the 1500s by the O'Bannon clan who were the secondary chieftains of the O'Carroll clan. It was then taken over by the Duncans and now is owned by The Ryans family. Although it was abandoned from 1922 to 1974, the Ryan's family is in the process of remodeling. Today guests can visit and learn about the seven hauntings that bring the castle's history more alive.
Then, Danielle talks about Ashton Kutcher. Particularly his connection to the Hollywood Ripper. And the power his testimony held undoubtedly swayed the court in giving the killer a more serious sentence.
