In 1953, a family moved into a remote Highland sporting lodge near Loch Ness, expecting nothing more than a fresh start.

Within weeks, they began hearing footsteps crossing the landing above their heads. Then came the knocking. Always measured. Always deliberate.

But the most disturbing encounter belonged to the housekeeper, Mrs MacDonald.

Late one night she awoke to find an elderly woman crawling slowly along the upstairs corridor, carrying a candle. The figure vanished before anyone else could see her - yet the footsteps and knocking continued, witnessed by everyone in the house.

Was it grief, suggestion... or something far stranger?

Join me as we explore one of Scotland's lesser-known hauntings - the remarkable case of Ardachie Lodge and the legend of The Crawling Ghost.
