10 Most Haunted Places In Scotland

6. Cawdor Castle, Nairn

If you think your dad is a bit of a douchebag, at least he's not as bad as this guy... Cawdor Castle is said to be haunted by a lady in a blue dress who has no hands. The story goes that the daughter of the Earl of Cawdor fell in love with a boy from a rival family and they embarked on a bittersweet romance. They would meet each other in secret and despite the fact that they made each other very happy, their parents disapproved. Her father more than everyone... During one of their secret rendezvous, her father discovered them together and instead of grounding her and exiling him, he cut off her hands with his sword so that she may never embrace her lover again.
