However, if you look beyond these incredible modern tales, you’ll find hundreds of years worth of history and spooky goings-on. Edinburgh has it all – ghostly pipers, Egyptian spirits, white ladies, warlocks, and witches, to name just a few.

    The Witches Ghosts: The Haunting of Abergeldie Castle

    This week, we venture into the haunted halls of Abergeldie Castle, a stunning fortress found in the heart of Deeside, Scotland. With centuries of history etched into its walls, Abergeldie is more than just a relic of the past—it’s a place where legend and tragedy collide.   At the heart of the castle’s story is the tale of French Kate, a 16th-century servant accused of witchcraft and executed on the nearby Creag nam Ban. Her ghost is said to haunt the castle’s cellars and clock tower, with countless reports of strange sightings and unexplained sounds adding to her legend.   We’ll explore the dark history of Abergeldie Castle, from its role in rebellious times to the shadow French Kate has cast over its halls.  For those fascinated by witchcraft trials, I highly recommend Contagious Enemies: First-hand Accounts from the Aberdeen Witch by Dee Lawlor. It’s a gripping exploration of Scotland’s witchcraft history that provides valuable context to stories like Kate’s. If you’re drawn to tales where history and the supernatural intertwine, this is one you won’t want to miss.

    The Haunting of Parliament Square: Edinburgh’s Darkest Secret – A Halloween Exclusive

    In this Halloween exclusive, we bring you the most incredible ghost story you’ve never heard: The Haunting of Parliament Square. A story I believe rivals the most incredible ghost stories in the world. Buried beneath the stones of this historic Edinburgh square lies a dark secret that terrified two flatmates in late 2006, eventually forcing the terrified women to flee the property. The Haunting of Parliament Square was relayed to me by Anna, a conflict photographer, whose chilling experience was later corroborated by Ruth, a BBC journalist. Both seasoned professionals and not easily rattled, these women shared accounts of a terrifying presence in the heart of Edinburgh's Royal Mile—an encounter that has stayed with them ever since. This isn’t just another ghost story; it’s a story where Edinburgh’s violent past collides with the supernatural in a way that defies belief. Prepare yourself for an encounter with the unknown that you won’t soon forget. And don’t miss out! My new book, Ghostly Tales of the NC500, is now available on Amazon. Join me as I uncover the haunted histories along Scotland’s most iconic road trip route, packed with over 50 tales of restless spirits and eerie legends. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ghostly-tales-NC500-Scotlands-enigmatic/dp/B0DKG2MGRH
