===Towers=== Like its walls, the five immense round{{ref|ASOS|31}} towers of Harrenhal are made of black stone.{{ref|AFFC|27}} Harrenhal's shortest tower is half again as high as the tallest one in Winterfell, yet none of the towers are proper, being bent, lumped, and cracked from the melting of the stone during the [[burning of Harrenhal]] by [[Balerion]], the [[dragon]] of King [[Aegon I Targaryen]], three centuries earlier. Their original names were lost with the death of [[Harren Hoare|Harren the Black]], and the towers are said to be haunted by [[ghosts|fiery spirits]].{{Ref|ACOK|30}} * The [[Kingspyre Tower]] contains the castellan's chambers. It connects to the Widow's Tower via a stone bridge.{{ref|ACOK|38}} * The [[Tower of Dread]] is near the middle bailey and the mews.{{ref|ACOK|47}} * The [[Tower of Ghosts]] is near the postern gate on the east wall and the collapsed [[sept]].{{ref|ACOK|64}} * The [[Wailing Tower]] contains storerooms on the ground floor and cavernous vaults beneath.{{ref|ACOK|30}} * The [[Widow's Tower]] connects to the Kingspyre Tower via a stone bridge.{{ref|ACOK|38}} Underneath there is a great cell that is used to keep prisoners.{{ref|ACOK|47}} [[House Whent]] uses only the lower thirds of two of the five towers, letting the rest go to ruin. [[Bat]]s infest the tops of some of the towers.{{Ref|ACOK|30}}
