7 Famous Haunted British Castles

 Fyvie Castle (Aberdeenshire, Scotland)

Former royal residence Fyvie Castle, in the northeast of Scotland, looks like something straight from a ghost story, with its standing suits of armour and hanging portraits whose eyes follow you around the room.

In 1920 the famous resident ghost known as the Green Lady was seen floating through a castle passage before disappearing into a wall. This is the ghost of Lilias Drummond, who died in 1601 and may have been murdered. Legend has it that a stain of blood on the floor of one of the rooms, still visible today, came from Lilias. It is claimed that this stain cannot be washed away. It is said that if you are in a room in the castle and it suddenly feels cold and smells of roses, then you are in the presence of the Green Lady.
