3. Mary King’s Close (Edinburgh) – The Plague Victims’ Lament

Beneath Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, Mary King’s Close is a Gabaghoul favorite with a grim history. Sealed during the 1645 plague, this underground street became a mass grave for victims, with their spirits said to linger in the shadows. Visitors report ghostly children, cold spots, and eerie whispers, especially in the winter gloom of February 2025. For thrill-seekers, it’s a subterranean nightmare—step down if you dare.

2. Culloden Battlefield (Inverness) – The Fallen Clansmen’s Wail

Near Inverness, Culloden Battlefield is a Gabaghoul gem soaked in tragedy. The site of the 1746 Jacobite uprising’s final battle, over 1,500 clansmen died, leaving their restless spirits to roam. Visitors hear ghostly bagpipes, see shadowy figures, and feel an oppressive sadness, especially under February’s misty skies. This winter, it’s a haunting ground for the brave.

1. Glamis Castle (Angus) – The Monster’s Lair

Topping our list, Glamis Castle near Dundee is The Gabaghoul ultimate Scottish haunt. This 14th-century fortress is infamous for the “Monster of Glamis,” a deformed heir allegedly locked away, whose ghost roams the halls. Visitors report strange noises, ghostly figures, and locked doors opening on their own, especially in February’s winter nights of 2025. For Gabaghoul fans, it’s a cursed castle—step in if you dare.
