Muppet Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 One building I know for a fact to be cursed is Glen Orchy house on Knab Rd. I know someone who used to live there, and they are adamant that the place is haunted. Cant remember all the stories, but they often were aware of footsteps when they knew there was no-one else in the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 This has been on the net for a couple of years. Not convinced myself, probably just a weird shadow. Have a look and see what you think. http://photos2.ghostweb.com/agood3.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styles Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I was visiting my girlfriend at Shurton Brae in Gulberwick one night and walking up the road to my car in a good mood and totally without a care in the world. It was dark but i saw a figure ahead of me standing. I then felt somthing I have never felt before a feeling of utter despaire and dread and the temprature seemed to dip. It came from nothing and was utterely overwhelming. I called out and the figure seemed to waiver. I ran to my car and got the hell out of there. What ever the figure was it was there and wasent human. Next time i was there through the day i looked to make sure there wasent a pole or somthing there, the place was empty so it was somthing. The feeling was the most unnatural thing i have ever felt it was like somthing was infulenceing the surrounding around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlemissbrightside Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Speaking about the old side pf the JC Hostel, has anyone been in the tower bit accessible through the top floor (we weren't allowed up but it was too tempting to resist!)......?? Creepy place. Apparently the hostel was used as a hospital during one of the Wars and the old study room in the basement was the morgue.......

PoolHaddock Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Speaking about the old side pf the JC Hostel, has anyone been in the tower bit accessible through the top floor (we weren't allowed up but it was too tempting to resist!)Yeah, I've been up there a fair few times. Theres a ladder in the cleaning cupboard that you go up to get to it. All thats up there is a massive hot water tank, a few old magazines and hundreds of drawings, people's names and general graffitti on the walls. Theres a few windows and things as well. When I was up it looked lik nobody else (not including hostel boys) had been up fir years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlemissbrightside Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I went up once and that was enough..... I remember there being a lot of bed pans and dusty old medical looking stuff. Eughh ... gies me the shudders just thinking about it.Noises that distinctly sounded like a girl crying were often heard coming from one of the rooms along the corrider leading to the manager's hoose.

JustMe Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 http://flog-it-here.com/cgi-bin/auction.pl?item=3031146167123 The above link is too a book about ghosts......Shetland ghosts even. Was on sale earlier but failed to sell and has been re-listed. BTW has anyone bothered to look at our local internet auction site. Better now than it has been but still kind of useless compared to e-bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammy Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Remember that car that went on fire in Safeway's carpark a few years back? There is a book called Evil Scotland by Ron Halliday that claims the car was possesed by an evil spirit. Probably the biggest load of crap i have ever read Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostrider Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 What was on that site before the marts though? The part of the buildings in the immediate vicinity of the sale ring at least, appeared to have been converted from some earlier building(s). From the look of it it seemed to be of the same sort of materials etc as most WWII military buildings in Shetland. Was there a military camp of some sort there, or were the smililarites in that part of the buildings to WWII military buildings simply a coincidence?

sammy Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Heard that story too but no sure whether its true or not. apparently it took place in the 1960s but no one likes to talk about it. Can anybody cast more light on this tale? When did it appear on Radio Shetland? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
