Behind the castles, battle honours, and noble titles of Clan Montgomery lies a darker inheritance—one filled with ancestral ghosts, ominous prophecies, fairy encounters, witchcraft accusations, and curses said to have followed the family across generations.

The Dark Lore of Clan Montgomery: 15 Stories of Ancestral Ghosts, Curses, Legends, and Prophecy explores the supernatural traditions associated with one of Scotland’s most influential Lowland clans. Drawing upon historical events and regional folklore, this atmospheric collection travels through the shadowed landscapes of Ayrshire, Renfrewshire, and the Scottish Borders, where recorded history frequently crosses into legend.

Discover the strange stories surrounding the Percy Pennon captured after the Battle of Otterburn, the fairy envoy who appeared to accused healer Bessie Dunlop, the Kelpie of the River Garnock, the Phantom Monk of Kilwinning, and the death omen of the falling oak. Encounter Countess Susannah and her mysterious rat familiars, the supposed doom surrounding the magnificent Eglinton Tournament, and the troubled figure remembered as the Repentant Warlock of Skelmorlie Aisle.
