Spooky abandoned 'haunted' castle plagued with mysterious deaths and missing kids

These spooky images show the inside of a " haunted " castle left abandoned following a series of mysterious alleged deaths.

The Moulbaix Castle in Belgium was built in 1860 and was occupied until 2007.

It is locally known as a "haunted" hotspot after three reported suicides are believed to have happened and two children also went missing there, according to the local legends.

In another myth, a burglar was found dead in mysterious circumstances following a raid at the property. The eerie castle, which has 344 windows, is surrounded by 62 acres of land.

It also burned down and was restored in 1889.

Roman Robroek, 32, from the Netherlands, visited the castle to photograph its creepy untouched rooms.

In one image, there is a large drawing room that still has the artwork on the walls and expensive furniture still in place.

The marble staircase also appears untouched by time with paintings and marble busts.

Furthermore, what appears to be the dressing room shows dust and soot around the fireplace.

In the playroom, a rocking horse and an overturned table show the first signs of neglect.

Roman tried to sneak in by crawling through narrow tunnels under the castle.

After four attempts of trying to come in through different entryways - he finally got in.

He said: "Seeing the castle exterior for the first time in real life was breathtaking.

“It was everything I was looking forward to, and more. The top floor was in a lot of decay, and the other two floors were not – except for a lot of dust and cobwebs."

Roman also said he had to hide from the guards and he had never been scared while exploring.

He was then escorted off of the grounds by police.

Moulbax Castle was originally built by Marquis Oswald du Chasteler.

It replaced a house from 1502 which was built on an old feudal fortress.

It is believed to have burned down and restored in 1889.

It was occupied by Nadine de Spoelberch, Countess d’Ursel until 2007 and in September 2015 it was sold to Herman Govaert.
