Overview

What sets this tour apart is its unique blend of rich history and spine-tingling tales, offering an immersive journey through Scotland’s most haunted and mysterious sites. Unlike traditional history tours, this experience dives deep into the darker, lesser-known stories that linger in the shadows of iconic landmarks and lessor knows sites. You'll not only learn about the historical significance of these locations but also uncover the chilling legends and supernatural occurrences that make them truly unforgettable. With each stop, you'll feel the past come alive, as we explore both the historical events and the eerie mysteries of the area.

Our tour bus is decked out in spooky décor to set the perfect eerie mood. The tour starts and finishes in Inverness.

Activity itinerary

Rait Castle
  • 20m
Welcome to your first stop on our sppoky tour—a fascinating 13th-century ruin that is steeped in history and mystery, making it the perfect start to our journey. Once a stronghold of Scottish nobles, the castle is now famous not only for its medieval architecture but also for its spine-chilling ghost story. Legend has it that the spirit of a betrayed laird’s daughter roams these ancient halls, adding a supernatural touch to your visit.
Geddes
  • 15m
Our next stop on this spooky tour is Geddes Graveyard, a small, atmospheric cemetery tucked away in the Highlands, perfect for those who enjoy a bit of eerie history. Dating back centuries, the graveyard is filled with weathered tombstones and ancient burial sites, some believed to belong to prominent local families. But it’s not just history that lingers here—many visitors have reported a chilling presence and the sound of footsteps echoing through the mist. Whether you're drawn to the mysterious energy or the haunting beauty of the place, Geddes Graveyard is sure to send a shiver down your spine.
Cawdor
  • 20m
Enter Cawdor Woods by torchlight to learn about a tragic story that happened at an old stone bridge.
Barevan Lifting Stone
  • 20m
As we arrive at the legendary Barevan Lifting Stone, you'll hear the tale of this ancient Highland challenge, where locals once tested their strength by lifting this massive stone. However, there's a more sinister side to this tradition, one that’s rarely spoken of in broad daylight. While many focus on the physical feat, darker stories surround the history of this stone and its useage.
Clava Cairns
  • 15m
Clava Cairns, an ancient burial site shrouded in mystery, offers a chilling glimpse into the distant past. These 4,000-year-old stone circles are not only an archaeological wonder but also the source of many spooky tales. Visitors often report an eerie silence that falls over the area, and some claim to have seen shadowy figures moving among the stones at dusk. Legends speak of restless spirits tied to the cairns, perhaps guarding the ancient tombs. Just don't take a stone!
Culloden Battlefield
  • 20m
Culloden Battlefield holds a haunting atmosphere that extends far beyond its historical significance. Known as the site of one of the bloodiest battles in Scottish history, it is said that the spirits of the fallen still wander the moor. Visitors often report eerie sensations—chilling winds, whispers on the breeze, or the faint sounds of marching footsteps. Some even claim to see ghostly figures in Highland dress drifting through the fog. The battlefield is especially eerie at dawn or dusk, when the mist rolls in, and the quiet weight of history feels almost suffocating. Locals believe that on the anniversary of the battle, the spirits of the Jacobite soldiers return, forever reliving their final moments.
Inverness Cathedral
  • 15m
The tour will end at Inverness Cathedral. Important Note- The remaining (Hours) not accounted for on the tour schedule will be allotted for the travel time from pick up until drop off.
