Known as the "Strength of Liddesdale" and ominously referred to as "the guardhouse of the bloodiest glen in Britain," Hermitage Castle is steeped in tales of terror, bloodshed, and the supernatural.
In this episode, we explore the chilling stories surrounding this formidable fortress, from the malevolent Robin Redcap, a goblin-like creature said to serve the infamous William de Soules, to the restless spirits of the countless souls who met their end within its cold stone walls. Discover the castle's role in Scotland's violent history, standing as a grim sentinel over the lawless and dangerous Liddesdale Valley.
We'll take you through the castle's imposing architecture, with its massive curtain walls and eerie, shadow-filled interiors, as we uncover the spectral legends that have made Hermitage Castle a place of fear and fascination for centuries. Whether you believe in ghosts or are simply intrigued by Scotland's dark past, this episode will leave you with chills.

Living in the Scottish Borders have visited Hermitage many times. It has a brooding atmosphere for sure, it’s an intimidating structure and I always feel uneasy inside or up close it. Looking forward to hearing this one!
It is some place!
Thank you so much
Your impeccable use of visuals is brilliant. The gaping maw of the castle in a darkened sky really emphasizes its brutal past.
You don’t just make videos, you make entire events drawing us in to the experience of those historic times. You certainly know how to weave a story into life. Bravo!

I fully agree!
A superb mix of history and a touch of paranormal thrown in. Shame the average Scott would rather be ruled by England than be independent Wallace, and the other freedom fighter would be ashamed of Scotland today.
🏴
I also find it very strange, that they were so envious of their own countrymen. But, it is by far the most interesting history ever, in the whole world. The Scots never showed any respect to their kings, or queens.

All of the Baliol clan; huwyte!"-
Humza Yousef, probably.
Absolutely beautiful video! The narrator is an absolute dream! Gorgeous all the way around! So love this channel!!
Aww, thank you! I had to rush this one a wee bit, glad you liked it 😊
This was a fascinating look back into the past of the lands, clans and castles of Scotland. Very well done, EE. I will never get to see it in person but your narration solidly planted me there in my imagination. Kudos!
Brilliant account of the darklord De Soulis' home.
Nicely done.
Thank you 😊
That was a Great Video. Boiling someone in lead I never heard of before. You had my mother riveted to this video and she loves your channel like I do.
Yep, sounds like a nasty way to go 😬 thank you both for watching and say hello for me please 😊
Brilliant! Can't wait for the next one.
Another Sunday treat. Thank you my friend. I really look forward to your Sunday uploads ❤

Thank you, my friend. You too! 🏴
Loved the video, a bit of Scottish history i didn't know about. Thanks
Hi, awesome live ghost stories video I enjoyed it. How are you doing? I'm doing well my cat Benjamin is doing well also. All your ghost stories videos are always enjoyable. Have a great day. Have you ever done Carew Castle in Wales. I heard it's very haunted 👻 have a great weekend see you next video 😊
I haven't! Don't know that place, will need to read up on it. Glad to hear you guys are doing well.
I live a couple of miles from Carew Castle. It’s on a tidal river in Pembrokeshire. It’s pretty spooky especially with the Halloween ghost tours.
Would love to hear of this. My family is connected to that castle!
Hello Tracey
Carew Castle is absolutely beautiful - would love to know your family connection to it ?
A baboon supposedly haunts Carew. Yup
Thanx again for a super awesome 👌 video. Love the stories the history and scenery castles , all of everything. Closest I'll ever get to my ancestors country, and I am thankful for this❤😊❤😊
Me. Eerie you’re just in time. There is a storm coming in just in time for you to share a spooky tale. My Sunday is now perfect. I hope you’re having a wonderful day. Blessings to you.😊💗
Glad i could help! Thank you and hope you're keeping well 😊
Here we go,another great video.love it.Thankyou Eerie,from across the forth.😂
👋🏻 hello! 😊
@@eerieedinburgh 👋😁
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you x
Is Comlongan Castle on your radar, haunted by the "Green Lady," Marion Carruthers? There is even a photo showing her ghost in the great hall, which is astonishing.
Ohhh, no. I don't know this place! Thank you, i'll see what i can dig up 👍🏻
@@eerieedinburgh This is the photo I meant. www.pinterest.com/pin/481040803925044630/
Thankyou for this, love the history , and ghosts stories,can’t wait for the next one
Thank you 😊
Another great video. I am planning on visiting Hermitage Castle. It looks like a stunning place to visit and explore.
It is! Really remote area. Well worth a visit and one of your videos 👏🏻
@@eerieedinburgh I'm sure that it would be an amazing location for a video. I had heard stories that people used to made to jump from one tower to the other, at Hermitage Castle. Obviously, no-one is said to have survived the jump.
@@AScottishOdyssey Yeah...that's not the wisest thing to do...😬
@@eerieedinburgh I think that it was meant to be a punishment/execution.
@@AScottishOdyssey really! Wow.
I watched the video and tale last night and was transported back to the time I visited Hermitage Castle. A visit I'm bound to never forget... Brooding, foreboding, dark, menacing. Never will I return and I've experienced my share of hauntings all over Scotland, never as menacing as here....
Bravo! You never ever disappoint!!
Another fantastic video; atmospheric visuals and music (complimentary and never distracting), perfect balance of historic events and ghostly tales, and the narration is just
Too kind! Thank you 😊
As always you have me transfixed from beginning to end, thank you so much for these wonderful stories and for your ability to take us into another world. I just love Eerie Edinburgh .❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The 2 suicides among the railway ghost stories which I sent you recently, the young woman at Pinmore on the Girvan - Stranraer line and the tragic story of Ian Watson, who died by falling from a bridge onto a train near Fraserburgh after deciding not to take his own life at the last minute, would make an excellent video?
Yes! And sorry i've not replied. My first book is due out next week and its been a wee bit manic but i agree 👍🏻
Excellent video ! Enjoyed it very much !!! 🏴 / 🇺🇲
We visited here many years ago early one morning as we were in the area , it was around 8am during the summer. The only thing we saw was grazing sheep. But i will admit it was very eerie with ground mist all around, I recommend to anyone who find themselves in the area in the early morning to visit Hermitage castle.
I sent you a story of my own experience at Seton Colligiate church- it was peaceful but unsettling. On that same trip when we stopped at Hermitage, I couldn’t help but feel a deep rooted feeling of unease. As if the very core of me was moved by something. I have visited many castles and ruins, but few have made me feel as sombre as Hermitage.
Thanku eerie xx❤u little rippa.
Haha! my pleasure 😊
BEAUTIFULLY spoken.....your Voice Gives so much to the Atmosphere, to this and the other stories I've heard from you!.....I was transported back to the Time you spoke of....I Could FEEL it!....A Sincere Thank you!❤
Excellent Thank you againe ! 💜🔥🍷
Another interesting fusion of history and the supernatural, really enjoyable to listen to, as always. I've never been to Hermitage Castle but it deffo looks formidable and foreboding!😱 Many thanks for another great spooky instalment!
l really enjoy how you include historic facts while sharing accounts of paranormal events. Thanks for the efforts you make on this channel.
I never get tired of hearing mention of the Battle of Stirling Bridge. It's just such a terrific, brilliant, cunning deed, it makes me want to stand up and cheer. I don't dare think about it when taking the bus because I'd probably be ejected by the driver.😆
I have been waiting patiently for a new video and here you are, hooray❤❤❤
I love these videos EE. Thank you for the history lessons. Blessings from a Scot lost in America.
I love to hear about Scottish history, and you do a great job of narrating this, whenever I watch your videos I am riveted, thank you for sharing
Thank you so much. I have been to Hermitage Castle many a time. A family affair, picnics and hide and seek. I've learned so much more than what I knew. Roxburghe Castle, ruins on the outskirts of Kelso. Now we have Floors Castle, occupied by the Duke and Duchess of Roxburghe. Black Dougles was resident at Springwood Estate, outskirts of Kelso. There is a Mausoleum there. I wonder if they are connected in any way. Again, many thanks for the new knowledge I now have. 💯💯💯💯💯💯❤️
Beautiful Scotland! ❤🇨🇦
I have always been drawn to Scotland why I don't know. I also love their history. Hi from Ireland ❤
I can listen to your videos over and over. Congratulations on your book I wish you all the best.
Having the ability to bring the so long ago firmly into the here and now. ❤️🔥
Thank you so very much for such an awesome story! I really look forward to seeing your uploads,the way you tell them brings such happiness to my day!
Beautiful vid, lovely voice 👍🏼
Amazing history lesson. Creepy ghost stories. Perfect, as usual Sir! Thank you for all you do.
Yet again you had me totally enthralled 👍🏴
Top-end content, beautifully rendered. Thank you very much.
It’s Sunday night and gotta watch this before bedtime😉
I saw Dark Shadows and immediately thought of the TV show from 1966 I'd run home from school to catch.
We all did! 😂 We’d hurry home so as not to miss the show!
I recognised Dunskey Castle just outside Portpatrick in this one. Is that on your radar as well?
I will add to the list my friend 👍🏻
Truly excellent film. Loved every second of it.
Thank you, my friend 😊
Very spooky! Thanks Eerie!
👻🎃💀😊
Another fascinating video! Loved it!
Cannot wait for the next!
Stay safe ❤❤
Makes me wish I could visit it myself. I've tried to envision the misery during my visit to Dunnottar Castle, the good, the bad, and the ugly, but I just could not bring my imagination to work for me there.
Thank you so much I love your videos the history is amazing I really appreciate it it.
My pleasure. Thanks for watching and the lovely feedback 😊
Stones do hold memories.
Hey friend! Can we hear more about the witches that were turned to stone? That sounds like a story by itself. Thank you dear friend.
Get yourself a pint mate! 🍻
You are too kind! Thank you my friend, i will do 🍻
@@eerieedinburgh
Always a pleasure my friend!
I feel like I’m learning something new every video
Great video 👍
Well done.
Just getting better and better, a RUclips plaque on your wall in no time
Thanks
That's too kind, thank you so much 😊
Hello, I'm new here I'm curious if you have done a video on Overton Bridge there in Scotland, I've heard the stories and the many theories about why large breed dogs jump to their deaths but it's still scary just to think about it.😢
1:48 where is that rock formation in the lake?
Those are the Duncansby Head sea stacks on the coast of Caithness 👍🏻 part of the NC500 route - i have a book coming out about that route soon 😊
@@eerieedinburgh I look forward to it!
Yeeeeeaaaahhh....
Sorry, three minutes in and I just wanted to be first! 😉😆😂
Coffee in the making, dreich weather outside, couch....what could be missing, besides some ghosts watching the video over my shoulders! 😉😆😂
I hope that all is well at your end of the trenches....🍻
Haha, it is that! Hectic weekend (in a good way) so this is a wee bit rushed and later than i'd planned. Got your feet up i hope?
@@eerieedinburgh
Was this one rushed!? 😳😲 I didn't even notice, I think that it's up to your usual quality, you certainly fooled me mukka! 😉
Very much so, feet up, coffee in hand and my baby blues on the screen watching your video.....😉👍🏻😎
@@Duececoupe Glad to hear, i'm about to do the same. I've been working on book stuff all weekend and only recorded this today. Started at 6am! Been a looong day 😄
@@eerieedinburgh
Oooohh....book stuff, that sounds interesting! 😎
Up at Dawn's crack....sorry, crack of dawn, eh? Better be careful there, might be some spirits that will have something to say about it, "listen here mate, don't make yourself unwell before my story is told, right!?" (Ghostly finger pointing in your face...!)😉
Jacinda ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
👍🏻✌🏼😊
what a silly little island
What a silly little comment…
STOP MAKING 3/4 OF THE VIDEO A HISTORY LECTURE!!!
@@codyrankin2042 those that matter don't mind and those that mind don't matter
Y'all have a problem with EE, then please don't listen to him. We love his videos just the way they are.
@@RissaFirecat yes we do😁the thing is tho u can't have a paranormal story without the history
