Haunted

Haunt #1 - Legend, Curse
After a curse was placed on the castle three owners went bankrupt. The forth and his family were drowned in the nearby loch when the ice cracked while they skated on it.
Haunt #2 - Ghost,
And also of apparitions having been seen within the walls on at least five occasions, including that of a lady, reputedly seen in the hall.
Haunt #3 - Ghost
Another story is that a man was hanged in the area of the prison, and that his ghost also haunts the place.

Cardoness Castle, a plain but impressive tower house, long held by the turbulent MacCullochs, in a prominent spot with a once comfortable interior, near Gatehouse of Fleet in Dumfries and Galloway.
