Morbid fact about that graveyard: the cliffs are a bit crumbly in that area of coast, and there's been a few occasions after heavy rain has caused a bit of subsidence, that grave contents near the edge of the graveyard have worked themselves out and dropped into the back gardens of the houses down below. Hello Mr 200 Year Old Fisherman, pleased to meet ya!,
That water filled grave, was the very one I laid in years ago joking about with my Dad. Whitby has always been my soul home. I’m currently trying to move there. A promise I made to myself when I was 18. I’m now 49. Life happens. I can’t wait to see the glee in the eyes of both of you, when you see her at night. If you can. Take the chance while others sleep. While the pubs are closed. That’s when the real spirits come out. 👍👏👏❤️❤️❤️
"Dracula runs up the 199 steps leading to the Abbey after his ship is wrecked on Tate Hill Sands in the Form of a Dog." How Cool to actually be there! Surreal!!
Cant believe you guys are in Whitby!!!! Love the place. The only town in England where you can walk around dressed as Dracula or Freddy anytime of the year, and no one looks at you funny.
If you're going to go this far into Dracula, don't ignore the Romanian portion of the tale. There's the tourist Dracula's Castle (Bran Castle) but there's also the castle ruins where Vlad the impaler actually lived. If you think 199 steps is difficult to climb, try the 1500 that it will take you to get to the real Dracula's Castle. It's called Cetatea Poenari. That was Vlad the Impaler's actual castle. It's a bitch to get up to but it's well worth it. I've been there three times. I think it's currently under renovation but it's well worth the effort. They don't do a good job of updating the current accessibility so you would have to call the hotel that's closest to it to find whether or not it's accessible at the moment.
Don't you know seagulls always say 'mine! mine!'. I heard a rumour say that the very first inspiration for Dracula that Bram Stoker had was when he saw the devils eyes in the Abbey, as the sun sets from a certain angle in summer, as it vanishes behind the abbey it shines through a particular window frame making it look like a pair of glaring red eyes.
SO glad you guys didn't miss Whitby. It is perhaps THE essential horror location and a beautiful little town. Was going to message you saying please go there ❤
Not right, go to poenari castle...transfagarasan. Arefu...117040 Romania....1453. Architect.: Radu negru 2,800 feet up road...1,482 steps. ....try that location it's the real place 😊
I just interviewed Dacre Stoker on my channel and it’s really inspired me to take the 3 hour journey and check out Whitby for myself. This just adds to it! Great work guys!
I loved this! My partner and I are from the Uk and we are planning on taking our holiday in Whitby this October. Cannot wait! Thank you for showing us around!🧛🏻♀️😊
Every moment of this video is a stellar example of why I love RUclips and rarely ever turn my TV on anymore. This video is one of the best self-produced productions I've ever watched. I don't know your name at the moment but I'm going to subscribe to your channel and continuously look for new videos from you. You've done a stellar job on this video my friend, I know the work involved to get to this level, you made it look smooth and easy I would not be surprised to hear that you've been to film academy. Really, really nice work.
My 5th great grandfather made those railings on the 199 steps back in the day! I was in Whitby over Halloween, where they light up the abbey and do Dracula plays at the top. Trying to get back down them in the dark is deadly 💀 So glad you made it here!
I am not being funny but do you know how many people have said their 200th great grandfather did them steps or railings. Sir. Stop feeding generational bullshit. Everybody’s 5th great grandfather built them railings. Prove me wrong
Is it just me or does anyone else suspect that the hosts can corroborate avi's ancestral claims because they were there when the railings were installed.
@@LindaCypressiMy great great great grandfather helped too. He was one of many local men who pitched in. Wonderful men one and all. And, no, I don’t need to prove it to you. Sorry.
Fantastic episode ,my Grandpa was born in Whitby ,it was often mentioned that he was Bela Lugosi's double ,if I could show you ,the resemblance was uncanny ,spookie !
My former home, I was back in Whitby only a few days ago, would have been wild to bump into you guys! Hope you enjoyed town. There's nowhere else like it!
You guys are knocking it out of the park. Without doubt, some of the best stuff on RUclips. Great production, great commentary, made by two very relatable people. Netflix cancelled! More please!
It's wonderful visiting places that inspired novels. Walking through the streets, pointing out certain details (where the black dog ran between the houses and then finally to the steps), even though it never happened...it did...in all of our minds when reading the book. The book literally comes alive when visiting there. Truly amazing.
Not sure if anyone else has mentioned but St Mary's churchyard was also used in the music video for Simply Red's song Holding back the years. Bit of useless information there. I have walked up and down those steps a few times. Great video guys 👍🏻
Theres something really romantic about a cemetary with those lumps and bumps with a majestic abbey looming in the background! So breathtaking! Great video as always!! Happy Halloween! 🖤
Thank you both for visiting and showing the north east of England. It’s a very special place with very special people. The electric light bulb first illuminated here, Christianity landed here, the Steam train first rolled here. I could go on, but suffice to say, it’s a special place. ❤
Wondering if you also had a chance to visit Slains Castle while you were in Aberdeen? Also rumoured to be an inspiration for Dracula. It's a beautiful and spooky cliff top ruin.
I am so glad you make the trip to Whitby.. The place is magical. My wife used to live there for a while and actually was a "scare actor" in the Bram Stoker's Dracula Experience for a while.. Once a year in the 1990s the Experience would hold a masked ball to celebrate all things vampiric, ect.. My old band (13 Candles) was pretty much the house band and played every ball they held. I have amazing memories from those times. Aweome video and thanks for sharing with us.
Oh wow. I live so close to Whitby, it's great knowing you guy's are seeing it - and at the perfect time of year when it's bleak and cold. I hope it gave you the same vibe climbing the steps as it did me years ago. You know there's a Vampire Convention once a year there don't you? Goth, Steampunk combo celebrating all things Gothic. It is quite something to experience.
Thank you for this video!🙏🏻 I’ve been wanting to see that for years. It’s unbelievable that they were able to construct structures like that hundreds of years ago with no trucks, cranes or even the tools we have today..
Enjoyed your trip around Whitby, it does have a very gothic feel to it. It is quite charming and creepy at the same time, Dracula is fabulous novel and you can see where the inspiration came from.
Whitby is our go to place at least twice a year. It can be busy at times but it's one of those places you never get bored of seeing. Also, the Whitby Goth weekend(s) are just brilliant 🦇
Hi both, so glad you managed to visit Whitby. Me and my husband got married in St Mary's and had our wedding photos in the Abbey, 24 years ago on Dec 6th!
Great video. I live in Whitby and have 3 of the Varna tea boxes in my home from the Dracula display at the Abbey. Thanks for visiting our lovely town ❤
I love everything about Dracula! I was impressed with that 199 Steps and that stoned made church. You done another great job Michael. That scene with the horses was nice! I love horses. Thank you so much, it's all beautiful!
I was watching your other video, then i jumped here! Lol. I watch it on screen of my tv, then you had 12 ads 👍 Listening to it as well, always. Hope it will help you. Back now to finish my other listening from your video. Wish nice weekend guys. Happy Halloween! 🙏 You both
In the dark depths of the darkest darkness there dwells a dank deadly dame and dude doing darkly dealings. That's how my fantasy horror fiction will start😮
So glad you have visited some of the most iconic places while you have been in the UK. We have the most amazing history and Whitby is just one of those places that has an amazing history. I was in Whitby just a couple of years ago and going into St Mary’s church is like going back in time. Thank you for visiting 🇬🇧 hope to meet you both one day.safe trip home to the US. 💙🧛🏻♂️♥️
Not sure what kind of camera or video camera you use but that is some really nice footage. You guys do a really Amazing job of narrating the moment so captivating I'm sure everyone watching wishes they were there also. Truly amazing video! Wow
I'm SO happy you visited Whitby. I didn't think you wouldn't. I've been visiting here for over 40 years & never tire of this beautiful, historic, quaint, magical, ghoulish fishing village. 🩶🦇🩶 You'd love the Goth Festivals & they've done Krampus events too. The village is packed & heaving with Goths on those days but the atmosphere & costumes are spectacular! Fabulous video Mr & Mrs Grimm. As always. XX
I do love how they make that 199 steps seem like it will literally be your life’s end! I do not think I’ve ever heard of a coffin bench! That is the coolest omg! Fits right in with the home of Dracula! This place definitely going on my bucket list, my list is so long holy heckens! The views of Witby in whole is so beautiful! That church is breathtaking too! I got goosebumps as soon as you said you did! Ahhh the chills! Can almost feel Dracula behind you! Do you and Baby Ghoul wanna adopt the beautiful horse now! He does love the camera! Love all the pets! Lil Grim Dracula! Amazing video yet again besties!!! Did it feel weird being on a filming set as you aren’t the only ones filming lol ! 😂❤️👻🎃🦇💚🦇🦉🐦⬛🧛🏻♂️
All around…it was an amazing experience and if you look closely on the film set…the camera guy on the far right is a huge huge huge fan of Grimm Life. You can see him waving with excitement.
@@grimmlifecollective I did notice that! So so incredible to be able to be on these adventures with you guys! Too bad you couldn’t continue filming I wonder if they’d let you be in the movie! Lol!
🩸🧛🏻🧛🏻♀️🧛🏻♂️❤️ That view of the town is magnificent! That church is glorious my friends. The graveyard is perfection.🪦 I am freakin out already and the video isn’t even finished! 😍🥰 ✨
You and Jessica are so awesome! Yall are so sweet and humble that I don't think y'all realize y'all are celebrities in your own right! And that's so sweet. Blessings ❤
We are great fans of Whitby (not necessarily because of Dracula for us) and we are so glad you enjoyed your visit. It has special memories for me as my grandmother loved the place. We always visit when we head the North Yorkshire Moors Railway nearby. We were there back on the 21st of October so, didn't miss you folks by much. Great video!
Probably one of my most favorite videos from you guys, and generally I enjoy all of your videos. But this one really has a certain charm to it. Just oozing with gothic romanticism and the weather really sets the stage too. Very, very cool.
So glad you loved Whitby, it is the best of England. I have been going there since I was born. I hope you saw it at night, all lit up it is beautiful. I hope you go back some day and really take it all in, go for the goth weekend, you shall absolutely love it! Great vlog by the way, you made us proud in Yorkshire!
That steep slope next to the 199 steps Got me thinking of all those years ago when they cried. "BRING OUT THE DEAD." And they'd be pulling the trolley 🛒 by hand ❤😂
Wow, Whitby is spookily beautiful, you can see why it was so inspirational, I love that it appears to be basically the same as it’s always been, looks like you are walking through a movie, brilliantly captured too, thank you guys and Happy Halloween to you both 🧛♀️🧛♀️🧛♂️❤
So happy to see you both exploring beautiful Whitby! My husband and I fell in love in Whitby 15 years ago and we'll be spending Christmas there this year. 🥰
Seeing Michael become friends with Dracula the horse was the most wholesome and heart warming thing I've seen today. So precious!!! Thank you for sharing that with us!
In the 1977 BBC version of "Count Dracula", Mina & Lucy's encounter with Mr. Swales was shot right there in the graveyard. Maybe a re-visit there would include the filming location? Regardless, this just might be the most beautiful-looking vid I've seen (Thus far) from The GLC! Bravo to you both!
Awww, I'm so happy that you guys managed to go to Whitby. It looks absolutely beautiful. Always looking forward to your videos! And the music that was playing in the Church was probably Poor Clare Sisters of Arundel. They released a whole album during the pandemic. The song is called "Veni Creator Spiritus". A latin hymn from the 9th Century by Rabanus Maurus.
Watching your postings, I’m finding out how many topics I am shamefully ignorant of. It’s not that I couldn’t look all this up on my own, it’s just I didn’t even know there was a there ‘there’. So, what else am I missing, in this huge jam-packed World? I guess I’ll find out with your upcoming postings.
I did see a black dog at the time stamp 41:10 right before you said Tate Hill Sands, but I wouldn't think he or she would be Dracula. It was looking at you like, "I will wait til they go away before I will do anything."
You paid perfect homage to what is my favourite place in England. It was also the place I proposed to my wife, during the Whitby Goth Weekend. You guys are amazing!
I normally wouldn’t even bring this up but I thought of my wife when I saw your beautiful wife’s handbag, very cool. She loves this kinda stuff too. ML&R you two♠️☠️♠️
How incredibly cool! You read my mind! My sister and I have been talking about Bram Stokers Dracula and wondering if you guys had done a video! It is absolutely Beautiful! I love all your videos. I came across your channel a couple months ago when your Sleepy Hollow video came up in my feed. Totally blown away!
I love that you are seeing the world. My life has always had Dracula in so many important times that life without him would just be empty, Happy Halloween!
We got absolutely loads of these all over the country in 🇬🇧 UK. you haven’t seen anything it gets better if you really like this kind of thing. Glad you both enjoyed yourselves. 🇬🇧🥳
One of my favourite videos you've done, guys! You couldn't have picked a better day to visit. The ship and black dogs appearing in the background whilst you talked about the Dracula hound departing from the Demeter was perfect. The filming crew around the church added an extra layer of excitement. Those beautiful friendly horses welcoming you was so sweet and interjected a bit of lightheartedness amongst the dark, gothic nature of your surroundings - the fact they were scratching their bums was so funny and of course, they were black, in keeping with the gothic theme. The coffin benches couldn't have been a more ideal tidbit of trivia to accompany GrimmLifeCollective as you ascended the stairs to the church and Abbey. The rather ominous but also tragic Saxon baby coffin. The gorgeous personalised gifts you got from the souvenir shop. And so much more. Thankyou for filming such an in depth tour of one of the greatest horror locations in the world. I have loved your tour of our UK shores and sincerely hope this isn't your last time filming here 😊
Morbid fact about that graveyard: the cliffs are a bit crumbly in that area of coast, and there's been a few occasions after heavy rain has caused a bit of subsidence, that grave contents near the edge of the graveyard have worked themselves out and dropped into the back gardens of the houses down below. Hello Mr 200 Year Old Fisherman, pleased to meet ya!,
What a fun story!
Thank you for showing this. I love Dracula. I am 66 and disabled. I will never get to go there myself . This is my favorite video of yours 💗💗💗
That water filled grave, was the very one I laid in years ago joking about with my Dad. Whitby has always been my soul home. I’m currently trying to move there.

"Dracula runs up the 199 steps leading to the Abbey after his ship is wrecked on Tate Hill Sands in the Form of a Dog." How Cool to actually be there! Surreal!!
amazing to see the birthplace of Bram Stoker's Dracula novel 🤩

It was still under renovation when we went this past spring. Supposed to open in 2024 last I heard.
Yesss been there years ago
thank you for adding the non-fiction version!
Really hope they do a series in Romania. Also the Hoia Baciu forest would be another must visit site...
Agreed!
Don't you know seagulls always say 'mine! mine!'.

They were filming 'Smoggie Queens', a sitcom starring actor Mark Benton as a drag queen. From Dracula to Drag Queens...lol
oh I love Mark Benton!
The bench was erected on the day I was born… that place is absolutely amazing thank you for letting us all see the beauty 🖤❤️🖤❤️
SO glad you guys didn't miss Whitby. It is perhaps THE essential horror location and a beautiful little town. Was going to message you saying please go there ❤
A number 1👍
Absolutely right so glad they went
Not right, go to poenari castle...transfagarasan. Arefu...117040 Romania....1453. Architect.: Radu negru
2,800 feet up road...1,482 steps. ....try that location it's the real place 😊

This is utter codswallop…. Retract this statement ..
I will contest you at the local Whitby Council HQ.
Is it just me or does anyone else suspect that the hosts can corroborate avi's ancestral claims because they were there when the railings were installed.

Little Mick was there spying on his mum
The grassy area and those arches and columns, what a beautiful combination.
I love Jessica’s energy 🫶🏼😭 she’s like a mystical cat exploring around the world
Theres something really romantic about a cemetary with those lumps and bumps with a majestic abbey looming in the background! So breathtaking! Great video as always!!
Happy Halloween!
🖤
Nobody better at telling a story and educating you on the subject. The best
That place certainly has something about it , it would look stunning with the mist rolling in as the night draws in, hope you two enjoy your stay 👍
Thank you both for visiting and showing the north east of England. It’s a very special place with very special people. The electric light bulb first illuminated here, Christianity landed here, the Steam train first rolled here. I could go on, but suffice to say, it’s a special place. ❤
Glad you made it to Whitby. That place feels like stepping into an old movie at nightfall.
I’ve never read “Dracula” 😊but you do such a nice job I feel I know a-lot now ! Beautiful scenery. Thanks !
Wondering if you also had a chance to visit Slains Castle while you were in Aberdeen? Also rumoured to be an inspiration for Dracula. It's a beautiful and spooky cliff top ruin.

Whitby is only 40 minutes away from me, I love the fact you were able to film the steps with no people in sight.
I know " every time I have been , there's always been someone on the steps , lol 😂 🏴
There must of gone 6 in morning i was there yesterday
Oh wow. I live so close to Whitby, it's great knowing you guy's are seeing it - and at the perfect time of year when it's bleak and cold.

I've been watching your videos for about 3 years and never imagined you would do a video in my home town!
BLOWN AWAY ! THANS FOR TAKING US WITH YOU TWO !
Thanks for coming over and enjoying our little Island x
You know anything ending in Borough is just bruh x
Thank you for this video!🙏🏻 I’ve been wanting to see that for years. It’s unbelievable that they were able to construct structures like that hundreds of years ago with no trucks, cranes or even the tools we have today..
I remember climbing the steps up there with my grandfather. I was only a little kid and it seemed like I was climbing a stairway to heaven.😂

I’m glad you guys had fun there!!!!
So glad you have visited some of the most iconic places while you have been in the UK. We have the most amazing history and Whitby is just one of those places that has an amazing history. I was in Whitby just a couple of years ago and going into St Mary’s church is like going back in time. Thank you for visiting 🇬🇧 hope to meet you both one day.safe trip home to the US. 💙🧛🏻♂️♥️
Another Great Tale!! Your storytelling is like no other. 🖤
Not sure what kind of camera or video camera you use but that is some really nice footage. You guys do a really Amazing job of narrating the moment so captivating I'm sure everyone watching wishes they were there also.
Truly amazing video! Wow
Oh my God! I wanted you guys to cover Whitby Abbey. No one else could do this justice. Happy belated Thanksgiving Grimm & Jessica!
I agree, i just hope they both come back when it's the Whitby Goth weekend👍

I wonder how they got those heavy solid brass church bits up those steps? The pulpit especially, looks like it weighed a TON!
The ruins are so beautiful. Stone masons were so skilled.
🩸🧛🏻🧛🏻♀️🧛🏻♂️❤️ That view of the town is magnificent! That church is glorious my friends. The graveyard is perfection.🪦 I am freakin out already and the video isn’t even finished! 😍🥰 ✨
You and Jessica are so awesome! Yall are so sweet and humble that I don't think y'all realize y'all are celebrities in your own right! And that's so sweet. Blessings ❤
You visited my home territory!! This is so exciting! Super pleased you both enjoyed Whitby and all of it's gothic goodness 🖤
oh youre Lucy Westenra....
Living in Middlesbrough which is not far, the amount of times I’ve been to whitby and it never ceases to amaze me how much of a beautiful place it is.
Amazing it screams Dracula! The feat to build such a magical place especially back then blows my mind. 🎃🍁🦇
As a previous comment said. Netflix, Cancelled. Keep your big bloated CGI nonsense. I need a more of THIS.
We are great fans of Whitby (not necessarily because of Dracula for us) and we are so glad you enjoyed your visit. It has special memories for me as my grandmother loved the place. We always visit when we head the North Yorkshire Moors Railway nearby. We were there back on the 21st of October so, didn't miss you folks by much. Great video!
Probably one of my most favorite videos from you guys, and generally I enjoy all of your videos. But this one really has a certain charm to it. Just oozing with gothic romanticism and the weather really sets the stage too. Very, very cool.
So glad you loved Whitby, it is the best of England. I have been going there since I was born. I hope you saw it at night, all lit up it is beautiful. I hope you go back some day and really take it all in, go for the goth weekend, you shall absolutely love it! Great vlog by the way, you made us proud in Yorkshire!
I agree, i'm from North Yorkshire the home town of Captain Cook👍
It warms my heart seeing you both so happy in England 🏴 ❤❤
Omg, you did it! I've pretty much visited Whitby throughout my life, so this is great
That steep slope next to the 199 steps
Got me thinking of all those years ago when they cried. "BRING OUT THE DEAD." And they'd be pulling the trolley 🛒 by hand ❤😂
Absolutely love this location and Dracula would never be the same without Bram Stoker,awesome video Grimms ❤😊
What does that even mean? Bram Stoker wrote Dracula.
Wow, Whitby is spookily beautiful, you can see why it was so inspirational, I love that it appears to be basically the same as it’s always been, looks like you are walking through a movie, brilliantly captured too, thank you guys and Happy Halloween to you both 🧛♀️🧛♀️🧛♂️❤
So happy to see you both exploring beautiful Whitby! My husband and I fell in love in Whitby 15 years ago and we'll be spending Christmas there this year. 🥰
Seeing Michael become friends with Dracula the horse was the most wholesome and heart warming thing I've seen today. So precious!!! Thank you for sharing that with us!
"Dracula the horse", very funny, you made me laugh out loud.
AMAZINGLY beautiful! Not what you call "wheelchair accessible", so I will have to live vicariously through your vids :)
You can get to the church and Abbey from road at the top, so it is accessible that way!
I came here to say exactly the same 🏴
@@rachaelghostcat8584 oooh nice!! ROAD TRIP! :)
@rachaelghostcat8584 that's good to know!. Ive not been up there for years and my bad knee couldn't cope with those steps these days.
In the 1977 BBC version of "Count Dracula", Mina & Lucy's encounter with Mr. Swales was shot right there in the graveyard. Maybe a re-visit there would include the filming location? Regardless, this just might be the most beautiful-looking vid I've seen (Thus far) from The GLC! Bravo to you both!
I think the BBC version is on RUclips
So happy you visited Whitby. I go twice a year and visit all the places you did and happy you got to experience such a special place. Best video yet.
Wow… Whitby is so beautiful. It is on my bucket list of places I want to visit in the future.
Awww, I'm so happy that you guys managed to go to Whitby. It looks absolutely beautiful. Always looking forward to your videos! And the music that was playing in the Church was probably Poor Clare Sisters of Arundel. They released a whole album during the pandemic. The song is called "Veni Creator Spiritus". A latin hymn from the 9th Century by Rabanus Maurus.
Thank you so much for your traveling..... I love the history that you share....
Watching your postings, I’m finding out how many topics I am shamefully ignorant of. It’s not that I couldn’t look all this up on my own, it’s just I didn’t even know there was a there ‘there’. So, what else am I missing, in this huge jam-packed World? I guess I’ll find out with your upcoming postings.
You guys are so lucky!! Now I wanna see it so bad I’m giddy lol. Whitby is now on my bucket list!!!❤
With your tour of the U.K. you’ve done wonders for the various tourist boards up and down the U.K.
I did see a black dog at the time stamp 41:10 right before you said Tate Hill Sands, but I wouldn't think he or she would be Dracula. It was looking at you like, "I will wait til they go away before I will do anything."
I absolutely love Whitby! So glad you got to enjoy going there! You were not far from me in Hull. I would have loved to have met you both.❤🎃🕸
I love Whitby.. glad you guys are enjoying Britain 🇬🇧🖤
As Jerry Seinfeld would say, “199 steps!? Why not 200? Were you just too lazy to add the last one?”
You paid perfect homage to what is my favourite place in England. It was also the place I proposed to my wife, during the Whitby Goth Weekend. You guys are amazing!
What’s going on Michael and Jessica hope your having a great Saturday Im ready for a Grimm adventure 😊
I normally wouldn’t even bring this up but I thought of my wife when I saw your beautiful wife’s handbag, very cool. She loves this kinda stuff too. ML&R you two♠️☠️♠️
I'm so jealous. I would love to go to Whitby and see everything. Dracula is one of my favorite novels. Great video, you two!
One of your best filming's to date. I love the vast history of England, how could you not. Good one guys...
How incredibly cool! You read my mind! My sister and I have been talking about Bram Stokers Dracula and wondering if you guys had done a video! It is absolutely Beautiful! I love all your videos. I came across your channel a couple months ago when your Sleepy Hollow video came up in my feed. Totally blown away!
Best one yet. So glad you’ve been to Whitby. Love all your films but this holds a special place in our families hearts. X
I love that you are seeing the world. My life has always had Dracula in so many important times that life without him would just be empty,
Happy Halloween!
We got absolutely loads of these all over the country in 🇬🇧 UK. you haven’t seen anything it gets better if you really like this kind of thing. Glad you both enjoyed yourselves. 🇬🇧🥳
Rievaulx Abbey is amazing
I remember Whitby, known for so much more than fish and chips. Love the charming coastal villages in all of UK. You guys keep rocking!
I live in Bridlington
Bridlington looks like the perfect, picturesque seaside village in England.@@Timothy1976
But they are the BEST fish & chips 🤤
I've always wanted to see Whitby because of Dracula and this video wet my fangs considerably!
One of my favourite videos you've done, guys! You couldn't have picked a better day to visit. The ship and black dogs appearing in the background whilst you talked about the Dracula hound departing from the Demeter was perfect. The filming crew around the church added an extra layer of excitement. Those beautiful friendly horses welcoming you was so sweet and interjected a bit of lightheartedness amongst the dark, gothic nature of your surroundings - the fact they were scratching their bums was so funny and of course, they were black, in keeping with the gothic theme. The coffin benches couldn't have been a more ideal tidbit of trivia to accompany GrimmLifeCollective as you ascended the stairs to the church and Abbey. The rather ominous but also tragic Saxon baby coffin. The gorgeous personalised gifts you got from the souvenir shop. And so much more. Thankyou for filming such an in depth tour of one of the greatest horror locations in the world. I have loved your tour of our UK shores and sincerely hope this isn't your last time filming here 😊
by far you guys have out done yourselfs. if you never made another video ( please never stop) i would die a happy person.
