Something that may be of interest to Edinburgh Forteans is the YouTube series 'North Edinburgh Nightmares'
As the name suggests, the focus is on the north of Edinburgh, covering the waterfronts and harbours of Leith, Newhaven and Granton up through Inverleith, Dean Village and the New Town to...
Something fascinating that's never been on my radar before now.
In 1682, a man in a "little boat" (presumed to be a kayak) was sighted off Eday in Orkney. Locals pursued him and he left the scene at speed. Two years later in 1684, another was sighted at Westray. Later a kayak was captured and...
Hi guys. Did anyone see the ITN News at Ten tonight? That is on Wednesday 5th May. I ask because a few minutes into the programme (just moments after the headlines and title music) they cut away from the newsreader Tom Bradby (live from Edinburgh) to pan across the night sky above Edinburgh and...

There doesn't seem to be a general purpose thread for scary noises and spooky sounds, so here's one.
Mods, if there's a better place for this, please feel free to move it.
Tonight, I needed to go down to the nearest shop. It was about 11 PM, just before closing time. It was cold, windy and...
Back in 1987 I was driving with my future spouse very late at night down from the highlands of Scotland, and was passing a loch side into a long quiet village that we both knew well.
We'd become used to the street lighting, as opposed to the total darkness that we'd been driving through...

I have long believed that spirits (ghosts, if you will) are present on earth. This opinion is, of course, from the multitude of accounts of sightings....some from my own family members. I have lived in a "haunted house" myself, and although I had not witnessed a...

Living in the shadow of Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags is...
