  • Summary

  • This week, we venture into the haunted halls of Abergeldie Castle, a stunning fortress found in the heart of Deeside, Scotland. With centuries of history etched into its walls, Abergeldie is more than just a relic of the past—it’s a place where legend and tragedy collide.

    At the heart of the castle’s story is the tale of French Kate, a 16th-century servant accused of witchcraft and executed on the nearby Creag nam Ban. Her ghost is said to haunt the castle’s cellars and clock tower, with countless reports of strange sightings and unexplained sounds adding to her legend.

    We’ll explore the dark history of Abergeldie Castle, from its role in rebellious times to the shadow French Kate has cast over its halls.

    For those fascinated by witchcraft trials, I highly recommend Contagious Enemies: First-hand Accounts from the Aberdeen Witch by Dee Lawlor. It’s a gripping exploration of Scotland’s witchcraft history that provides valuable context to stories like Kate’s. If you’re drawn to tales where history and the supernatural intertwine, this is one you won’t want to miss.
