The ghosts in Scotland that 'emerge every May' including waving 'White Lady'

It is no secret that Scotland is home to many sites that are said to be haunted by ghosts or spirits.

From spooky ruined castles to historic city pubs, no matter where you are in the country, you aren't likely to be far from somewhere said to have a supernatural presence. While we commonly think of ghosts as being a constant presence at haunted locations, there are some places where spirits are only believed to appear on certain days of the year.

February and March both marked the arrival of mysterious figures in Scotland—from massacred clansmen to loch mermaids—and May also sees many unique spirits supposedly make an appearance. These include a woman dressed in white that waves from a Dundee castle window and the spirits of fallen soldiers said to re-enact their final battle.
