Tour Haunted Scotland Ackergill Tower

Tour Haunted Scotland Ackergill Tower. Ackergill Tower has had a stormy history over the past 600 years. At one time it was owned by the Keith family who had frequent fights with the Gunns and Sinclairs who came from the same part of the country. The castle is said to be haunted by the ghost of Helen Gunn who was kidnapped by one of the Keith family who brought her back to Ackergill Tower. She threw herself from the battlements of the tower rather than submit to her captors.
