  • In this episode, we explore the chilling haunting of Durness Manse-a tale that has endured for centuries, wrapped in mystery and supernatural whispers.
    The remote Scottish highlands set the scene for eerie occurrences, with the Manse itself standing as a dark reminder of ghostly encounters and unexplained events.
    Discover the story of the ghostly hand said to appear at the Manse door, and the restless spirit that has terrified visitors and residents alike.
    What secrets do the walls of this historic building hold? Could the Caoineag , the Banshee like spirit have been responsible for the death of a visitor to the Manse?
    Join us as we delve into the haunting legends, the eerie sightings, and the history behind one of Scotland's most chilling paranormal tales.

    Thanks for another excellent video ❤ Visted Smoo cave back on a family holiday back in the seventies . Elderly lady emerged wearing sort of old fashioned clothing . Kind of freaked me out . Turned out she was a retired art teacher from England on holiday . Very nice lady . Did scare me a bit at the time .

    An old spell passed down through the Scottish immigrants to evict spirits and haints from one's abode is to place an iron nail on the stoop or front porch, pour a little whiskey on it, then strike it 3 times with a metal hammer. The first strike evicts the spirit or haint from the house, the second one evicts it from the property, and the third strike seals the home and property and will keep spirits and haints out for as long as the nail remains. Doing this when moving in a new house will keep any spirits or haints from coming in with you.

    Amazing story. Well told except for one thing, the old man at the door… you referred to later as a female much like the Banshee. That was a little confusing. Otherwise, the setting and the music were very haunting.
    Oh and I did look, there is a manse in Durness, but it’s a cottage. By the looks of it, i doubt it’s the same one from your story. Although it is behind the church of Durness….😉

  • @douglasthomson1228
    @douglasthomson1228 Месяц назад

    Nice atmospheric storytelling, although your pronunciation of "Ceannabeinne" would raise eyebrows amongst the locals. The rather more mundane explanation for the mysterious doors opening and closing at the Manse is that this was the Reverend Findlater's wife Mary sneaking out to Balnakeil House where she was conducting an affair with Lord Reay. It is believed that it was knowledge of this that led to the controversial dismissal of the schoolmaster of Croispol, William Ross.
