A group of ghost hunters have been left spooked after capturing what they believe is a 'White Lady' on camera while at a castle near Falkirk.
Following a trip to Almond Castle back in May, in which the group of friends used a medium and torches to communicate with spirits, they decided to revisit to the site on Saturday.
They soon "began gasping and squealing" as they encountered what they believed to be a supernatural force. Images taken by the group appeared to show a white figure in a window, which they claim is 'unexplainable'.
Yvonne, who is a member of the group, told Edinburgh Live: "On the first investigation we were communicating with a lady via the torches. We had asked spirits to turn the torches on and off in response to questions - and within minutes of each other both David and Jane saw a 'lady in white' standing in a doorway on the floor above.
"On Saturday night we communicated with this same lady again, then, on leaving the castle, we took these photos in quick succession. We have let a professional photographer have a look and he has checked out lighting changes etc and cannot really explain it."
The group are absolutely convinced that they have photographed a White Lady at her window of the ruined L-plan castle, which dates back to the 15th century.
A White Evil Lady, or woman in white, is a type of female ghost. She is typically dressed in a white dress or similar garment, reportedly seen in rural areas and associated with local legends of tragedy.
There are many tales from historic buildings and derelict castles across Scotland that involve a White Lady who is said to haunt the halls she once lived in.
