Deep in the heart of western Germany lies a castle with a mysterious history.
Did you know that Frankenstein's castle is an actual, real place?
An eccentric scientist lived here about 400 years ago.
But today this place has been transformed into Germany's biggest Halloween party.
Every year since 1977, Frankenstein Castle has hosted the country's biggest Halloween event, which spans almost two weeks.
When it comes to the fear factor, everything here is allowed.
When I came to Germany in 1997, Halloween was viewed as an American export and hardly celebrated anywhere.
But all that has changed now.
And while Halloween in Germany may not be as widespread as in the US, it is growing in popularity.
And when Germans celebrate, they go all out.
