Why You Wouldn’t Survive in a Medieval Winter Castle | Sleepy Survival

Описание: Opening Hook (viewer-facing):
What was it really like to spend a winter inside a medieval castle? ❄️
Not the Hollywood version with roaring fires and feasts, but the real survival story: damp stone, frozen bread, smoky halls, lice in your cloak, and a cold so deep it killed.

In this Sleepy Survival episode, you’ll step inside a drafty fortress in January — and quickly see why you wouldn’t last a week.

Educational Value (SEO-focused):
We’ll explore:

Why castles were freezing in winter despite their massive fireplaces.

What medieval people actually ate in the cold months (spoiler: not much).

How layers of wool, fur, and cloaks never stopped the chill.

The diseases winter brought: pneumonia, fevers, and frozen corpses waiting for spring burial.

Why castles looked like symbols of power, but in winter felt more like stone prisons.
