A few of the incidents in the first series, like the guy dying in Mary's bed and his body being smuggled back to his own room were lifted from the history of Highclere Castle, the place where the show was filmed.

No, not exactly. The show's creator/writer Julian Fellowes claims it's a true story he heard from a friend. Neither the friend nor the house it took place in was named.
