The story of the ghostly drummer of Cortachy Castle

The sound was enough to turn the residents and guests of Cortachy Castle in Angus a whiter shade of pale.

Legend of the castle has it that the ghost of a drummer would bang his instrument to predict death in the family.

It is hard to imagine something more frightening that the sound of the beats growing closer at this ancient Scottish seat.

Cortachy Castle, near Kirrimuir, has been in the Ogilvy family for at least 500 years.
