Rumors abound of hauntings hidden treasure underground tunnels and a curse on those who disturb old burial grounds. Eccentric and passionate individuals lived and died here over the centuries. Some perhaps have never left.Built originally as a private residence the Belhurst Castle was transformed into a casino supper club and speakeasy. Currently it is an upscale dining establishment with a banquet hall and a luxurious inn.
