Ep 5 - The Roman Colosseum

Dating back almost 2000 years, the Colosseum stands today as one of the new "Seven Wonders", and is one of the most recognisable, and most visited, landmarks on earth.  For five centuries men, women, and animals were brutally killed in front of a crowd of up to 80,000 in gladiator battles, animal hunts, and executions. Around 400,000 humans and over a million animals were slain here, all for the entertainment of the people of Rome.  Its undeniable that this much bloodshed has forever left its mark on the Colosseum, which is today considered the most haunted building in Rome, if not all of Italy. Together let's look at the history and hauntings, and find out if it deserving of it's reputation of being a hive of paranormal activity?
