Two Girls One Ghost Episode 335 - Scotland's Most Haunted House
Step into Ballechin House, Scotland’s most haunted home—where ghostly dogs, weeping nuns, and limping specters turn this centuries-old estate into something straight out of a gothic horror movie. Ballechin House has witnessed over 300 years of mystery, death, and paranormal activity, but its true infamy began after the eccentric Major Robert Stewart vowed to return in the form of a black spaniel… and the hauntings haven’t stopped since.
But this story isn’t just about restless spirits—it’s also about a trailblazing psychical researcher who faced her own haunting in life. Ada Goodrich-Freer, known as the first celebrity ghost hunter, led one of the most ambitious paranormal investigations of the 19th century inside Ballechin House. With her scientific approach, meticulous documentation, and fearless pursuit of the unknown, Ada should have been remembered as a pioneer in her field.
Ballechin House remains one of the most terrifying and controversial hauntings in Scottish history, and at its center is a woman who inspired a generation of paranormal researchers—even if history tried to forget her.
