15 Stories of Ancestral Ghosts, Curses, Legends, and Prophecy

Beyond the battles, castles, and powerful Earls Marischal lies another side of Clan Keith history—a world of ghosts, supernatural warnings, ancient curses, strange creatures, and legends whispered for generations.

The Dark Lore of Clan Keith journeys into the shadowed folklore surrounding one of Scotland's most influential families. From the storm-battered cliffs of Dunnottar Castle to the windswept lands of Buchan and Caithness, these stories explore the places where recorded history and traditional belief meet.

Discover the legend of the warrior whose blood-marked shield became associated with the Keith name. Follow tales of a terrifying kelpie lurking in the River Ugie, the tragic Green Lady of Ackergill Tower, the mysterious Good Neighbours of the Buchan estates, and the prophecy said to foretell the doom of Inverugie.

Travel deeper into Clan Keith's supernatural world through stories of witchcraft at Fetteresso, phantom monks seeking vengeance for the loss of Deer Abbey, spectral military drums heard above Peterhead, selkies along Sinclair's Bay, and the eerie phantom lion said to haunt Dunnottar Castle.

The darker legends continue with the bloody traditions surrounding the Keith-Gunn feud, the supernatural reputation of St. Tayre's Chapel, the mysterious Green Plaid Lassie of the Dunnottar cliffs, and the ancient Scottish belief in taibhsearachd—the Second Sight—that became entwined with the downfall of the final Earl Marischal.

The book also explores one of the most remarkable episodes associated with Dunnottar Castle: the desperate effort to save the Honours of Scotland while Cromwell's forces closed in on the fortress.
