Built in the 13th century, Houska Castle in Prague, Czech Republic is one of the country’s most haunted landmarks. It was built with no fortifications, no water, no kitchen, away from major trade routes, and with no occupants at its time of completion. The castle was not built as a residence or as a protective sanctuary, but was instead built because a large hole, nicknamed “The Gateway to Hell” needed to be covered up. People believe that, by building this huge castle, they were able to keep the demons trapped in the lower level and they built the thickest walls closest to the hole to keep the supposed demons at bay, away from nearby villages. Spooky tales of humanoid creatures and dark-winged creatures flying out of this hole have been reported for centuries, and the ominous castle is host to further paranormal occurrences.

“An artist is an ordinary person who can take ordinary things and make them special.” — A dose of Monday inspiration from artist Ruth Asawa (1926–2013), seen here working on one of her paper origami sculptures. Asawa studied origami at the Japanese Cultural School. Later on at Black Mountain College, her teacher Josef Albers assigned design problems in which students transformed paper from two dimensions to three dimensions by folding it. Two of her commissions, Aurora and the Nihonmachi fountains, stemmed from these “origami” paperfold designs. Source: Robert Snyder’s film, Ruth Asawa: Of Forms and Growth.
