Ethie Castle in Scotland<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A haunted castle near Arbroath has been put up for sale for \u00a31.65 million.<\/p>\n

Ethie Castle is believed to be haunted by\u00a0David Beaton, a 16th century Cardinal who was brutally murdered\u00a0by a group of protestant lairds.<\/p>\n

Cardinal Beaton targeted and arrested\u00a0a number of Protestant figures and when he\u00a0arrested preacher George Wishart and had him burned at the stake,\u00a0a group of Protestant lairds responded by entering St Andrews Castle and savagely murdering the Cardinal before hanging his body out the window.<\/p>\n

Before his murder, Beaton live in Arbroath at Ethie Castle and, since his passing, legend his it that his ghost still roams the corridors of the historic building.<\/p>\n

\n

As well as the ghost of the Cardinal, guests at the castle have also heard the cries of a child \u2013 said to be the young boy whose skeleton was discovered in a secret bricked up room.<\/p>\n

As frightening as the ghosts may be, if you can look beyond that, the castle, built in the 14th century, also has plenty of things going for it \u2013 it comes with a number of large rooms, tennis courts, outdoor swimming pool and an extensive garden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
