Description
Nessuno sa quando sia iniziata di preciso la leggenda della stanza segreta nel castello di Gowrie, eppure tutti la conoscono. Dopotutto, vista la forma irregolare del castello, le sue grandi dimensioni e la disposizione tentacolare degli alloggi, l'esistenza di una stanza del genere non sarebbe poi così improbabile, oltre che facile da nascondere. Si dice però che nessuno tranne il conte, il suo erede e un estraneo fidato ne conoscano la posizione. Alcune voci dicono che sia piena degli scheletri dei nemici che un vecchio conte massacrò durante un banchetto. Altre storie invece raccontano che la stanza sia la prigione del conte Robert, il "cattivo conte", confinato lì a giocare a carte con il diavolo per l'eternità.
