Ghosts of Scotland: Eerie Ghosts Stories, Murder, Witches, and Folklore

Written by Kelly Mass

Narrated by Doug Greene

Whether you believe in the supernatural elements or not, it is fascinating to see how the idea of ghosts happened, and how it developed over the ages. Even if they're really there, it can be said that many individuals have been totally wrong about them. And so, it is pretty much up to us to study them and sort out what the most credible, spiritual truths could be, based upon our own beliefs blended with the stories and testaments of others.

A ghost is the soul or spirit of a departed individual or animal who can appear to the living in folklore. Ghosts are defined in numerous ways in folklore, varying from an unnoticeable presence to clear or hardly noticeable wispy shapes to reasonable, realistic forms. Mysticism, or a séance in spiritism, is the purposeful effort to get in touch with the spirit of a departed individual. Part, haunt, phantom, poltergeist, shade, specter, ghost, alarm, wraith, devil, and evil spirit are some of the other titles used to define it.

The belief in a hereafter, and symptoms of the spirits of the dead, is quite common, extending back to pre-literate civilizations' animism or forefather praise. Funeral events, exorcisms, and some forms of spiritualism and routine magic are all specifically created to put the spirits of the dead to rest. Though legends of ghostly armies and the ghosts of animals instead of people have been told, ghosts are usually depicted as lonesome, human-like essences. They are said to haunt particular spots, products, or people with whom they once had a relationship. According to a Seat Proving ground research from 2009, 18% of Americans declare to have seen a ghost.

Let’s talk about this more in this fascinating book.

Reviews for Ghosts of Scotland

[Mary Stepp · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The narrator sounds quite competent, and the writer understands a ton about the theme. I discovered a lot simply by soaking all of it up. The information was terrific, especially if you already know a little about the topic. In fact, you can understand nothing at all about it and still follow along easily. Not only did this particular audiobook seem like it was high quality, but it also showed me crucial aspects of daily life, and about this issue in particular, of course. So, it definitely deserves a few hard-earned stars.
