Why Medieval Castles Were DEATH TRAPS | Boring History for Sleep

#history #boringhistory #historyforsleep Welcome back to Watching Paint Dry History. Tonight, we explore the cold, dark, and meticulously designed world of medieval castles. While they may look romantic from a distance, these stone structures were engineered with one primary goal: to be a "death trap" for invaders. In this sleep-inducing documentary, we take a very slow and detailed look at the defensive features that made these fortresses so deadly. We will discuss the geometry of spiral staircases, the placement of murder holes, and the psychological impact of the "inner ward." Narrated in a calm and monotonous tone, this video is designed to help you relax while learning about the architectural genius of the Middle Ages. In this episode, we cover: Spiral Staircases: Why they always turn clockwise to handicap the attacker. Murder Holes: The slow and terrifying defense of the gatehouse. Moats and Drawbridges: More than just water barriers. The Keep: The final, claustrophobic line of defense.
