About Ghosts & Ghouls Of The Auld Toun - King's College Chapel

Old Aberdeen is full of ghostly tales and gruesome events that resonate throughout this university burgh's past. Join us for:

Parson Gordon - a benign spirit of comfort
Captain Beaton - the tortured soldier who hanged himself rather than go back to the Western Front
Sacrist Downie - King's College's most spine-chilling urban legend, or true tale of a student prank gone very wrong?
Guts Man - a gory tale of anatomy students gone rogue
Suffragette City - why does an Edwardian spirit dressed in a WSPU sash appear on High Street?
The Gerard Sisters - traumatised by sunstroke, or Dracula's brides?
The Spirit of Wallace - Does the Guardian of Scotland's limb lie beneath a mason's mark on St Machar's outer wall?
The Professor's Ghost and Mrs Baird - the true story of how a minister's wife dealt with a spook who frightened her son as a child
