Tour Haunted Earlshall Castle Scotland
Tour Haunted Earlshall Castle, Fife, Scotland. This Scottish castle built by Sir William Bruce in 1546 is said to be haunted by Sir Andrew Bruce of Earlshall, also known as Bloody Bruce.

Commander of the force that massacred Richard Cameron and his band of devotees of pure Presbyterianism against the Episcopalism being forced on Scotland by Charles II, the band that inspired the formation of that great Scottish regiment, the Cameronians, Andrew Bruce is recorded as paying a guinea to hack off Cameron's head and hands with a dirk and selling them in Edinburgh for £500.

Tour Haunted Corgarff Castle Scotland
Tour Haunted Corgarff Castle on visit to Aberdeenshire, Scotland. This Scottish castle was occupied by the Forbes family during their feud with the Gordon family. This all came to a head when the Gordon family ravaged their land and laid siege to the Castle in 1571. At this time it was occupied by the Lairds wife, Margaret Campbell, and 26 women and children. The men folk and male servants were away at this time. Margaret would not let the Castle be taken so the Gordons set fire to the Castle and all the many women and children were killed. Since then ghostly screams have been heard in the Castle, especially from the barrack room.
