Scottish Ghost Stories

Folklorist Elliott O’Donnell was well known in post-Victorian England for his breezy, light hearted tales of ghostly hauntings in books like Some Haunted Houses of England & Wales, True Ghost Stories and Ghostly Phenomena. In 1911 he published Scottish Ghost Stories, a series of haunting tales told as his first person recollections of experiences and yarns encountered during his travels.
