Scotland has long been a contender to the crown of Most Haunted County in the World, and is something of a treat for the ghost aficionado. The length and breadth of the country teems with all kinds of ghosts, from poltergeists, ladies of various colours and the many spectres of Mary, Queen of Scots. So who better than experienced researcher and author Gregor Stewart to take the reader on a tour of ghostly Scotland. Featured in this volume are The Mackenzie Poltergeist of Greyfriar's Kirkyard; the viscious spirit of the Minister's House at Kinross; the ghosts of Balmoral Castle; the ghosts of Killiecrankie and the numerous spirits that lurk in Edinburgh's City below the ground. These tales are not for the faint-hearted, but then again, neither is Scottish history, which gives rise to them. And they are all the better enjoyed in the hands of a master storyteller, whose previous work includes Haunted Kirkcaldy, Glasgow Ghosts and Supernatural St Andrews.

St Andrews is famous worldwide as the home of golf and for being the town where Kate Middleton met her future husband, Prince William. From the 12th century, the town was also home to the Scottish Church for 400 years until the reformation brought religious turmoil, violence and destruction to the area. With such a long and bloody history, St Andrews is also known to be home to many haunted sites. From the fearful poltergeist of Witch Hill, the site where those accused of witchcraft were burned at the stake, to the kind hearted Friar of St Rule's Tower, who still offers visitors a helping hand despite his gestures of good will resulting in his brutal murder centuries ago, Supernatural St Andrews covers the many tales of spectral clergymen, former students and residents, witches and phantom coaches, one of which is believed to carry the Devil himself. Compiled by Paranormal Investigator, Gregor Stewart, this collection brings together in depth research into the history of the town and its hauntings, along with the authors extensive local knowledge, to produce one of the most complete guides to the town spooks. Set out in four sections, with each covering a specific part of the town or the surrounding area, and richly illustrated with maps and photographs, Supernatural St Andrews offers the reader clear details of each location and provides any visitors the opportunity to guide themselves through the streets to the haunted hotspots to soak in the atmosphere for themselves.
