Jungle camp: UK show is to be filmed in this haunted castle ruin

The British jungle camp takes place in a ruined castle in the United Kingdom. Specifically, it should be about this haunted castle.

The British jungle camp "I'm A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here!" will be filmed in November 2020 not in Queensland, Australia like all the years before, but in the United Kingdom for the first time due to the corona pandemic. The producing station ITV announced on Friday. The location should therefore be a "rural castle ruin", as it was said. "The Sun" now claims to have found the exact location. It is said to be the ruins of the 200 year old Gwrych Castle near Abergele in Wales.

According to the British tabloid, the station paid a million pounds (about 1.2 million euros) for it. "The producers are satisfied with the new location – they are looking forward to a change of scenery this year," an informant is quoted as saying. Apparently, people are particularly happy about the new setting, because a haunted castle opens up new possibilities. "Knight tournaments and dungeon stays" are said to have already been brought into play.

Who is haunted in the castle?

In this year's tests, however, "the ghostly backdrop" should also be included, and cameras would be set up around the castle "to capture any paranormal activity". Legend has it that Winifred Hesketh, Countess of Dundonald, has been wandering the property in a white dress since her death in 1924. Others claim to have heard of a fatally injured maid who haunted the area. According to the newspaper, a third ghost version is about other former domestic workers who cannot find peace …

Where is the German edition filmed?

And as if all of this wasn't exciting enough, the question of all questions remains: Will the German version, "I am a star – get me out of here!" (RTL), move to the haunted castle? In Australia, the two broadcasters shared the camp.

But unlike its British counterpart, RTL is still keeping a low profile. When asked by the news agency spot on news, a spokesman said on Friday: "We will give everything in January with 'I'm a star – get me out of here!' to be on air again, in whatever form. We are facing the corona-related challenge and are currently very conscientiously checking whether we can go back to the tried and tested Australian jungle camp. At the same time, we are also thinking about suitable alternatives for the 15th season . "
