Tour Haunted Ardvreck Castle Scotland
Tour Haunted Ardvreck Castle on a visit to Sutherland, Scotland. The Scottish castle is said to be haunted by two ghosts, one a tall man dressed in grey who is supposed to be related to the betrayal of Montrose and may even be Montrose himself. The second ghost is that of a young girl. The story tells that the MacLeods procured the help of Clootie, a Scottish name for the Devil, deriving from cloot, meaning one division of a cleft hoof, to build the castle and in return the daughter of one of the Clan MacLeod chieftains was betrothed to him as payment. In despair of her situation, the girl threw herself from one of the towers and was killed.
