This week we're in Conwy, Wales to find out if the curse held. We'll walk the walls of a castle that has been besieged, surrendered, and bled into for seven hundred years, and we'll step inside Plas Mawr: the finest Elizabethan mansion in Britain, and one of the most actively haunted buildings in Wales. We've been to Conwy. We've walked those streets.
