Many did, many didn't. It often came down to what culture was building the castle, and in what time period.
Most had a dungeon of sort below them, and these could have passages.
A particularly common time for them to have secret passages was in Spain during the inquisition, where there was a "lot of torturing to do" and secret passages would have aided in secrecy of otherwise forbidden/cruel acts.
