luck to visitors.

ghost of a limping butler
- Castle Rising, Norfolk reverberates to the mad laughter of Queen
Isabella, who was held captive there after plotting against her son Edward
III.
- If the Loch Ness Monster is rarely seen it may be because it is wary of
the Ghost of Annie Frazer at nearby Aultsigh Inn, who was murdered by her
lover in a jealous rage.

 There
is no doubt that Halloween wouldn't be the same without a ghost or three. They
suppose to be scary, frighten you even, but those who dress up as a ghost always
bring a smile to my face.
Pumpkins, Frank N Stine, Goblins, watch out on Halloween, because the ghosts
are back in town, the un dead once more try to walk this earth, but we frighten
them and make them return from where they came.
So help keep them away, dress up as a spooky !
